A handsome combination girder and Warren throught-truss bridge carries the Union Pacific Railroad over Blacno Creek between the tiny Uvalde County towns of Knippa and Sabinal. This bridge is easily spotted from the US 90.

It looks to us like this bridge is been carrying rail traffic along the busy rail corridor from San Antonio to Del Rio, Texas for a century or a bit more (as of 2015)
Bridge Type: Truss

Bridge Usage: Railroad

Moving Bridge: This bridge is static (has no moving pieces)
