No one seemed to photograph the Towaco overpass bridge! The attached is the
only photo I have that shows it to any degree.

It was torn down because the railroad had nothing but trouble with trucks
trying to make the tight turns onto either end of the bridge, and completely
destroying the concrete posts. Plus, they had two underpasses within a
quarter mile of this bridge...
