Construction for Edmond's 2nd Street RailRoad Bridge began in 1967. The former location of the old train station is directly above you as you pass underneath the bridge.

The iconic Rodkey's Flour Mill/Dwain's Automotive are on the south side of the bridge, with the Festival Market Place on the north. At the southwest corner of the Festival Market Place is a historical marker about the Edmond Train Depot. A huge and beautiful train sculpture at the market as well (called Kentucky Daisy).
