33rd Street Railroad Bridge


The 33rd Street Railroad Bridge is a truss bridge that carries the Allegheny Valley Railroad on the P&W Subdivision over the Allegheny River in downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States.

History

The Allegheny River was first crossed at this point by a railroad bridge built in 1884 by the Iron City Bridge Works, which moved to Pittsburgh from Cincinnati in 1856.
This was replaced by the B&O bridge in 1921.
