[NW Mailing List]

Am I correct, the referenced bridge is a wooden trestle bridge?

On a related note, I am wondering if there are any historic photographs of the Norfolk Southern (Norfolk & Western) Railroad Bridge at Mile Post N 340.68 over the East River near Glen Lyn WV which was originally constructed in 1903 and incorporates a pair of single--span, riveted-plate deck girder bridges.

Thank you.

See page 64 of West Virginia Railroads Volume 4:  Virginian Railway by Lloyd Lewis.  The are two photos of the bridge.
It is a TLC publication.

Page 29 of The Virginian Era, also by Mr. Lewis, has one picture of the bridge.  This is a 20-year old book and may be hard to find, but the other one is new.

      I have been searching for photos of the VGN high trestle crossing  the East River and N&W at Glen Lyn.  Photos of the New River bridge are numerous, but the trestle must not have been as
  popular. What about  VGN  passenger station photos at Glen Lyn? I have not yet read a copy of H. Reid?s VGN Railway. Might it have  some photos I seek? I have been a life-long fan of the N&W which has lead to my newfound interest of the VGN. Thanks for any info.    mike beadle
