Ideraway Bridge

Wednesday, May 24th, 2006

The most unusual bridge in Queensland. This bridge is located on the
Maryborough to Gayndah railway line, not far from Gayndah.
It is technically called a deck-type pin-jointed fishbelly truss main
span bridge. The truss was used as falsework in the construction of Macrossan
Bridge across the Burdekin River near Charters Towers. A case of waste
not, want not.
