context_page_description: The Tuscarora Creek bridge is a 63.5-foot single-span, steel, through-girder bridge with a floor beam/stringer system supporting a 12-inch thick concrete slab south of Walkersville, Maryland. Originally constructed by the Frederick and Pennsylvania Line Railroad Company in 1872. It was later rebuilt by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1907 as a thru girder concrete deck bridge using an older bridge from the Northern Central Railway. In 1915, the bridge was surveyed as part of the Interstate Commerce Commission's effort to establish freight rates for the Parent railroad.
  As of 2013, the bridge is in active rail service, operated by the Walkersville Southern RR.
