NS/Pennsy Bridge over Scioto River in Columbus, OH

(Bridge Hunter; Historic Bridges; Satellite)

Both Bridge Hunter and Historic Bridges label this as a CSX bridge. But the 2005 SPV Map and a contemporary USGS map label it as Norfolk Southern. It was one of two Pennsy routes that headed west out of Columbus.

In this overview, the trees are blocking the third pin-connected truss on the left.

I still can't take a "straight" photo when leaning over a handrail.

This post is what motivated me to find my Columbus bridge photos. I was on the north bank whereas he was on the south bank.
