Just a general question for someone to have a stab at answering...when railroads were abandoned here in the US why were trestles cut down and not left in situ ? Was it a liability issue or were the materials that valuable. In some cases Mike the bridges and trestles were removed and re-used at another location. There are some bridges on the former BN and other railroads that have been taken down and rebuilt in a different state i.e. moved from a branchline that has lost all business say in the middle of Montana and moved to a location say in Iowa. The "bridge movings" were done by "predacessor roads". Liability is also the reason for removal. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
