The link didn't work, so this is the best I could get for the road bridge.

| Eric Bosell commented on BridgeHunter_np Here's a new picture of the NP Skagit River Bridge. I took the photo on 11/28/2020, a beautiful fall day here in the Skagit Valley. And here's some historical notes and supporting links about the history of the rail line: Evidently there was a different bridge at this location prior to the construction of this steel bridge in 1913. The railroad itself was originally constructed by the SLS&E; c.1880-1892. They built 126.30 miles (203.26 km) of track from Seattle to Sumas, connecting with the Canadian Pacific transcontinental railroad. The line was acquired by the Northern Pacific Railroad around 1896. |
