CSX Railroad Bridge & Hickman Lockhart Memorial Bridge - New Johnsonville, Tennessee

The CSX Railroad Bridge over Kentucky Lake / Tennessee River is a multiple through truss railroad bridge with a lift section for lake / river traffic to pass. It was built in 1945 and shows the years of use and weather. Running adjacent to the CSX bridge is the Hickman Lockhart Memorial Bridge. But...the bridge seen here is not the original. This simple stringer bridge replaced a magnificent Parker through truss with K-panels (as a K-Hybrid). While I understand the need to replace bridges that are beyond repair, as a Civil (Structural) Engineer, I wish more would be replaced as originally designed and not with these UCEB's. Regardless, the CSX bridge is worth stopping here for a few photos!

Image was taken during my trek to photograph all 95 county courthouses across my home state of Tennessee...now revisiting in order that the courthouses were photographed!

Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D7200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

"For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11
