Guelph Junction Railway

Eramosa River trestle Guelph.

Mile 29.75

This major project took place over 4 months at a cost of about $1.83 million increasing load capacity to 300,000 lbs.

This new steel pile trestle was a major project to replace a very old wooden pile trestle.

 

Work was carried out under traffic with the new structure built around the old structure.
