Nanaimo River Mining & Logging Railway Bridge

Stone, steel & wood evidence of the Nanaimo River steel bridge used for a mining railway (1904-1931) and for a logging railway (1943-1984).
James Dunsmuir's Canadian Collieries (Dunsmuir) Ltd. company built this steel deck truss bridge in 1904, and used it for its coal mining trains until they abandoned it in 1931.
Comox Logging and Railway Company built a logging railway from Ladysmith to Nanaimo Lakes in 1943 and used this steel bridge as part of their line, after constructing new approaches. MacMillan Bloedel also used this bridge until the 1950s.




Comox Logging eventually became part of Crown Zellerbach.
The line was to be closed in 1984, and a fire on the bridge made the closure official.
I don't know when the steel truss bridge and wood trestle approaches were dismantled, after the 1984 closure.
Today, all that remains in place is the obvious approach grade in the woods, stumps of wood pilings for the approach trestles, and the stonework platforms for the steel bridge towers. Parts of the steel deck truss are lying on the north side hill.

Seen by me on October 8, 2019.
The north side is accessed from Nanaimo River road, a bit south from the intersection with White Rapids Road, south of Nanaimo, BC.
