Major Progress on Railroad Bridge
The photos below show crews getting ready
to assemble the structural ironwork atop new piers over the Tygarts
Valley River, just south of downtown Elkins, when the rail line was
being rebuilt into Elkins in the Fall of 2006.
The restored
bridge now carries excursion trains full of tourists and old train
enthusiasts past the Darden Mill to the Elkins
Depot. (Just visible to the left and beyond the tall gray mill, in the
first picture.)
