Located along 6th Street/Cameron Road in Mosby, this small concrete arch bridge once carried the Milwaukee Road line over an outlet of Lone Star Lake.
Built in 1915, the bridge consists of a single concrete arch span, set onto concrete substructures. The bridge was abandoned in 1931, when a new alignment opened to the north.
The arch features the distinctive egg shape seen on many Milwaukee Road arches. In addition, the railroad once crossed Cameron Road on a bridge immediately to the west.
During 1930 and 1931, the Rock Island built a new alignment between Mosby and Lawson. As a joint agreement, the Milwaukee Road rebuilt their route through Mosby and the two shared operations of a split mainline.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in fair to good condition, with no major deterioration noted.
The author has ranked this bridge as being locally significant, due to the common designs.
