Pedee Trestle |
Description: |
An eastbound STMA train crosses Pedee Trestle on the former Milwaukee Road main line, now the St Maries River Railroad. At nearly 200 feet high, this is the tallest railroad trestle still in use in the state of Idaho. There were two taller bridges, both on the MILW west of here, but they are now only used by bike riders. |
