How safe is it?

FRA says bridge safety is a priority

Bureau County is covered with railroad tracks, and the chug of trains moving through is a common sound.

Since residents don’t use the railroad bridges, they’re rarely thought of, but sometimes residents can look at a bridge and consider its safety.

They might think, “It’s covered with rust, so it must be falling apart,” or “The plate says this bridge was built in 1899!”
