Hi Ted,
      I don't remember when the track was abandoned by NS. It's probably 
been 3-4 years ago. High Bridge is still in tack. It's been turned into 
rails to trails. There may be more information on the Virginia Park Service 
website.

Take care,

While checking out this Lynchburg bypass discussion on google maps, I 
followed the track East to see what was happening at High Bridge and was 
surprised to see that the bridge is still there but there's no track. I 
know I'm not up-to-date on N&W alignments, but I thought I would have known 
whether High Bridge was still in service. I didn't.

When did traffic over the bridge end? What is the fate of the bridge? Any 
portion still there?

Ted Goodman, Columbus
