Getting very warm (in a very cold place).
It used to be part of Mackenzie Northern Railway. That line was built in the mid to late 60's by CNR to haul iron ore out of the north. Then the mine was closed because the ore was too expensive to refine (low grade) and eventually the track was sold to Rail America who ran it as a shortline from Romeo Junction northwards.
CNR has recently bought the track back for some reason.
So the question now is, where on the line is that bridge....
As I initially said, there is a "geographical significance" to this bridge.
