Pratt Truss Goshen

We spotted the bridge at Goshen from window of Virginia Scenic Railway’s Appalachian Special.

A couple days later we followed the train on its westward journey over Buckingham Branch’s former Chesapeake & Ohio.

In addition to action shots of the train, I wanted photos of the old pratt truss—a twin span bridge that dates from 1890.

This was built to accommodate a streetcar line, but so far as I can tell, no trolley line was ever built to Goshen.

I made these digital images with my Nikon Z6-III, and also exposed a few Ektachrome color slides.
