That looks similar to the Kate Shelley Bridge on the Union Pacific former C&NW line just west of Boone, IA. That bridge is/was the highest double track railroad bridge at one point. Great effects on the shots. It looks like the bridge is no longer used. Is there anything meant to keep people off the bridge? It would take a lot of nerves to cross it on foot!

This bridge is near Belle Missouri and is closed off to the public since 2006 because people use it as a party spot. Idiots will soon make all the cool spots disappear.
