Yuba County, California Bridges: 5th Street Underpass over the BNSF Railroad

October 2013 (39.13944 Degrees, -121.59944 Degrees) 5th Street UP

A little east of yesterday's bridges is the 5th Street Underpass (16C0024), a railroad bridge that was built in 1907 to carry the BNSF Railroad over 5th Street in Marysville. It's an highly ornamented four span reinforced concrete slab bridge on multicolumn bents. Among its interesting features are haunched girders, diamond-shaped holes in the red brick barrier, corbels supporting an exterior facade painted blue, etc.
