National Recreation Trails 2004 Photo Contest/Cuyahoga-054.jpg
The Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Trail in Ohio. The high
structure is the historic trestle built by the New York Central RR in
1907 to bypass congestion in Cleveland. It's 160 ft high, 1988 ft long
and still carries 40-50 trains a day. Beneath it are a variety of pipelines.
The trail passes under all of this in a structure much like a covered
bridge, presumably to protect trail users from stuff falling from the
trains (photo by Mary Shaw; all rights reserved).
