1959 Bridge
Lisa Ruble posted Wabash Railroad Bridge (new bridge built in 1959) over the Illinois River from Scott County Illinois to Pike County Illinois at Valley City - this railroad bridge is now Norfolk Southern. View looking to the east, from the Pike County (Valley City) side. You can see the rail line curving off to the north, where it will pass through Naples before continuing on to Bluffs (Naples and Bluffs are both in Scott County Illinois).

The control cabin for this bridge is accessed via the east (Valley City) side.
