Fisher Covered Railroad Bridge
Fisher Covered Railroad Bridge, Historic railway bridge in Wolcott, United States.
The Fisher Covered Railroad Bridge extends 103.5 feet over the Lamoille River, featuring a double Town lattice truss design and vertical board siding.
Constructed in 1908 by the Boston & Maine Railroad, this structure served the St. Johnsbury and Lamoille County Railroad until its abandonment in 1994.
The bridge represents early 20th-century American engineering methods, incorporating traditional wooden construction techniques with a distinct central monitor for steam locomotive ventilation.
Steel support girders installed in 1968 reinforced the original wooden structure, preventing its demolition and extending the operational lifespan of the bridge.
This structure stands as the last covered railroad bridge that remained in active use in Vermont, leading to its registration in the National Historic Places in 1974.
