Tenbridge, Railway bridge in Chattanooga, Tennessee, US.
The Tenbridge vertical-lift railroad bridge spans 310 feet across the Tennessee River, featuring two mainline tracks and specialized lifting mechanisms.
Originally constructed in 1879 with a swing span design, the bridge underwent a major transformation in 1917 when engineers replaced it with a vertical lift structure.
The structure represents a key component of the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific Railway network, connecting multiple regions through Tennessee.
The bridge operates as an essential crossing point for Norfolk Southern Railway cargo transport, maintaining continuous rail traffic flow across the Tennessee River.
The bridge structure serves as one of three documented nesting locations for peregrine falcons within Tennessee's borders.
