Armitage Bridge South Portal Looking North

            Armitage Bridge (1887), also called Coburg Railroad Bridge and McKenzie River Railroad Bridge (historically, John Day Railroad Bridge), is a single span Whipple through truss bridge over the McKenzie River, between Eugene and Coburg. This bridge has been moved once. Originally erected in 1887 across the John Day River at the confluence with the Columbia River, it was dismantled and relocated here in 1907 by the American Bridge Company for new owners, Southern Pacific Railroad. This bridge was designed by prominent American civil engineer and great bridge engineer, George S. Morison, who designed many major bridges, some of similar configuration to this one. The bridge is made of wrought iron, pin-connected, and riveted throughout, making it one of the few remaining bridges of its era. Further, while this bridge was a relatively small project for Morison, it remains one of the few surviving Morison bridges of this distinctive configuration. Notable features are the deep lattice portal bracing, mid-height horizontal beam in the end panels and cast-iron decorative details, like the date plate. Lane County, Oregon, USA. Nikon PC-Nikkor 35mm f/2.8 at f/11.
