Old MKT RR bridge. It has been sitting in the elevated position for as long as I have known about it. I hear there are
plans to demolish it that are being opposed by the Katy Trail Assoc. folks. The best vantage points for photography are the park under the new highway bridge (also worthy of a visit-very neat!) and the waypoint listed which is near the southern approach in the Isle of Capri casino parking lot. The south end is gated, and the approach breached to prevent foot traffic.
