INRD bridge between Solsberry and Tulip IN.
Title:  INRD bridge between Solsberry and Tulip IN.
Description:  This was on my first visit to this bridge, with a friend from Matton IL. As we peered across to the other side, we saw what we thought were people at the other end. When we looked thru the binculars, we found that the vultures in the area were using the bridge as a start and stop area.....so that gives you some idea of the height of it. This website will give you a bit more info:http://www.bloomingpedia.org/wiki/Greene_County_Viaduct
