A Norfolk Southern mixed freight approaches the old N&W Bridge over the Ohio River on the Kenova District, crossing over the CSX Kankakee Subdivision as it heads westbound at Kenova, on May 2nd, 2025.
According to Wikipedia, the bridge was first completed in 1892 with a single track, but its piers were sized for future widening. The expansion to two tracks was undertaken in 1913 by Norfolk and Western, the predecessor railway of the current owner, Norfolk Southern. The railroad added new trusses around the existing structure and expanded the piers. Rail traffic continued throughout construction, and the new tracks opened on June 9, 1913.
