Fort Wayne Railroad Bridge, a photo from Pennsylvania, Northeast

Photographer's Note

Pittsburgh is known as the City of Bridges. This is Fort Wayne Railroad Bridge, also known as Pennsylvania Railroad Bridge, spanning the Allegheny River near the David L. Lawrence Convention Center.
My older son and I were at the Pittsburgh Auto Show (held at the Convention Center) today. As we were leaving, I noticed that the thick glass panes of the Convention Center distorted the bridge and the buildings across the river. Although the distortion was more evident to the naked eye, it is still noticeable in the photo.

Howdy Murat,

I am attracted to bridge architecture especially train ones, probably because I worked on bridge train design for the Calif Dept. of Transportation. The old steel bridges still attract my attention and the Fort Wayne Bridge appears to have compact and sturdy truss design from a bygone era.

Well done,

cheers,

Ray
