Located in Storm Lake, this small through girder bridge carries the Canadian National over a former railroad.
Built in 1900, this bridge features a single through girder, set onto concrete abutments. It was constructed to cross a former Milwaukee Road branch line, which was later abandoned.
This type of girder is standard on the Illinois Central lines in Iowa.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in fair condition. Some spalling on the substructures is becoming an issue.
The author has ranked this bridge as being locally significant, due to the common design.
