I'm not even sure what bridge it is. It's actually in Braddock, PA, just upstream from Pittsburgh on the Monongahela river and home to the area's only (I think) surviving steel mill. This bridge is abandoned. It's a railroad bridge that connects nothing to nothing else. There are tracks on both sides of the river, but neither set connects to this bridge any more. Just out of frame to the left is an abandoned steel mill: http://www.robertstech.com/temp/mill.jpg I'd love to be able to photograph both the bridge and the mill seriously, but I don't think I'll be able to get near enough to either :) -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
