The Peanut Line was built in 1914 and served the area until 1995. Tracks were removed in 1998 and the bridge is still used by ATV and snowmobile clubs. The bridge is in very poor condition with loose and rotting boards making passage possible but care must be taken. The bridge has no identifying plaques, markings, or survey marks, at least none that I could spot.
