Treacle Creek Bridge Finally Photographed

Photo: 1/2008 rj

Janis Ford reported sighting this bridge over Treacle Creek in Union County last year. The bridge resisted being photographed by the dense foliage concealing it most of the year. This photo was taken from Homer Road and although still partially hidden by trees it clearly reveals a Pratt pinned pony and what appears to be the remains of an I-beam approach span on the near side. Perhaps there was a second Pratt truss span in place of the I-beams at one time.
