I have a thing for train trestles. It goes back to the movie Stand By Me. If you don’t know, the clip is here.
This is an old trestle and trains no longer cross it. I drove under a modern trestle this weekend. It was all steel and as such more sparse in the supports. I like that this is all made from timbers and the pattern is more intricate.
The Franklin and Tilton Railroad Trestle crosses the Winnepesaukee River in Franklin, NH, and was used by the once-thriving paper mills there. The rail line was decommissioned in 1973.

Good thing it is still standing 🙂
Yeah, it is!
Nice vantage point. 👁👁🍃
Yes. It’s really pretty. I’m glad the city has retained it.
That was such a great movie. This trestle is beautiful, but I’m really glad it is not in use anymore. I think I would hold my breath the entire time it went over this.
I’ve gone by some other modern trestles and think I’d defined have some anxiety going over them in a train.
And it is still standing! love it!
Me too. Thank you.
I have a thing for train trestles as well. This one’s a beauty.
It is. There is a nice park there and then a trail up to the upside down covered bridge.
I’m seeing a lot of day trips to NH covered bridges in my future!
Oh I love that movie too! Stephen King is a great story teller! This is a great image with the reflection in the water. Looks like a beautiful day! Happy Friday Chris! Take good care
Stephen King is wonderful. I’m glad you enjoyed the image. It’s a really cool spot that I just happened to find. Happy Weekend, Sandra. 😊
You are finding all the goodies!
You know, I am. Yesterday, I found like 2-3 post-worthy things just by taking wrong turns or pulling in to reprogram GPS.
Been there, done that! And isn’t it so cool!
That it is!
Unless you really take a wrong turn, get lost, and the gps has no signal! hahahaha
That happened too.
Very nice shot! I also have a soft spot for these kind of intricate constructions and was instantly reminded of Stand By Me seeing this trestle!😀
Great movie, isn’t it. Thank you.
