Railroad Bridges: Railroad Bridge 5.1 lies just upriver from the St. Johns Bridge on the
Willamette.
Seven other bridges were built in Portland before this one.
Technically, because these others have been replaced, this is the
oldest surviving structure standing across the Willamette in the
Portland area.
The Southern Pacific Railroad Bridge was built over the Willamette in
1910, upriver from the Sellwood Bridge, about midway between the
Sellwood and Oregon City Bridges. I think this bridge has a new
owner - yes, I should update the name...
