Wabash Bridge, Railway bridge across Missouri River in St. Louis County and St. Charles County, United States.
The Wabash Bridge stretches 7,876 feet over the Missouri River with a central span of 624 feet and multiple connected sections.
Built in 1936 by American Bridge Company and Mr. Vernon Bridge Company, this bridge replaced an 1871 structure that experienced multiple accidents.
The bridge represents the evolution of American railroad infrastructure, connecting communities and supporting regional economic development through rail transportation.
Norfolk Southern Railway operates freight trains on the single-track railroad bridge, which underwent deck renovations starting in 2016.
During low water levels, remains of the Montana steamboat that struck the original bridge's pier in 1884 become visible near the St. Louis County shore.
