1855: (Bridge Hunter, lost in 1913 flood)
1913: (Bridge Hunter; Historic Bridges; 3D Satellite)Normally, I would pass on yet another railroad truss bridge. But the stone arch approach on the west side of this bridge makes it noteworthy.

| Postcard History Series of Butler County via gettothebc The viaduct is 665' long and has 17 arches. The engineer, John S. Earhart, decided the best way to climb the steep Rossville Hill was to stay out of the valley and avoid part of the climb. He went on to become the chief engineer of the Miami-Erie Canal. |

At first, I was surprised to see a CSX train on a B&O route. I thought that CSX had abandoned most of the B&O route from St. Louis to the East. After studying some maps, this is not part of that route. This is a route between Indianapolis and Cincinnati. Furthermore, it was shared with the Erie railroad.
