Located just north of Faribault is this large deck girder structure.
Built in 1905, the bridge features a trio of deck girder spans on stone masonry substructures. Uniquely enough, the line was built in 1902, not 1905.
This discrepancy in build dates indicates that at least the main span of this bridge is a second generation span at this location.
More than likely, the original structure here was a pile trestle, which was replaced by this structure in 1905.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in good condition.
The author has ranked the bridge as being locally significant, due to the common design.
