Summary

[edit]
Description We, three adults and one dog, drove 1500 miles to visit my relatives in Minnesota earlier this month. We stayed in an airbnb in Columbia Heights, a suburb of Minneapolis. I was struck by the old wood supports for this rather old train bridge that was in a nearby park where we walked our dog in the morning. I was never able to get a photo is good light so this will have to do. I believe this is owned by the Soo Line RR. One of its predecessors existed here at the turn of the previous century. It is still in use and I did see trains crossing iton two occasions. I did a bit more research. This is the CP Columbia Parkway Bridge built in 1910 by the Minneapolis, St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie Railroad. It is now owned by the Canadian Pacific Railroad. It is 13 feed above the roadway and is 210 feet long.
