Built prior to about 1910, this bridge across the Kiamichi River in Choctaw county, Oklahoma was originally a Frisco property, now operated by the Kiamichi Railroad. This is a pin-connected camelback truss, with deck truss approach spans. Remnants of an even older railroad bridge exist behind the photographers position.
Love the "mecchano type" bridges. Choctaw county? Didn't Bobbie Gentry sing about someone up on Choctaw Ridge way back in about 1967/68. Or was this a different Choctaw? Then quite popular in the UK she was and attractive. Well popular with me and attractive as far as I was concerned. What's she doing now? Must be quite an old lady.
Funny that. I am still about 21 when I picture her singing the song.
