| Metrotrails posted, doubled the size Historic NPS image of Chesapeake and Ohio Canal in Williamsport Maryland approaching the pony-Pratt iron truss bridge carrying Salisbury Street to River Bottom Park. The bridge was built in 1879 by Baltimore engineer Wendell Bollman's Patapsco Bridge and Ironworks. There are very few remaining Bollman bridges today. Another is in Savage, Maryland, and another is on Great Allegheny Passage near Meyersdale Pennsylvania. |
The Western Maryland Lift Bridge is across the top of this photo. The truss is obstructed by a pedestrian bridge on this side.
