Fisher Railroad Covered Bridge

This bridge, built in 1908, carried the St. Johnsbury & Lamoille County RR over the Lamoille River until recently. The truss is a Town-Pratt with double lattice, which now only carries the deadload of the truss, roof and snow load. A steel pier was built in the river and now supposts four steel girders which carry the railroad live load. The this bridge has a full lenth cupola which allowed the smoke from the steam locomotives out of the bridge.
