This simple steel stringer bridge crosses 1st Court, just west of Oxford in Adams County.
It is located just off of county road E. It is also located near the Neenah Creek Arch
The bridge rests on concrete abutments, which have been constructed for two tracks. This is a common theme throughout this line, with expansion points in almost every bridge.
The author has ranked the bridge as being locally significant, due to the common design.
The photo above is an overview.
