Awesome to have found an Ontario exploration channel! We have so much history in the north of Ontario left over from the logging and mining days, anyone who's traveled the rivers in and around Algonquin Park can still see the square set massive logs they used to tie together and float down just about any river they could use. It's a shame they took up the wooden railways ties, that bridge would have been perfectly fine for hikers, snow-mobiles and mountain bikes for years to come. Great video, subscribed!

Beautifully done. I wouldn't have the nerve to cross that bridge. Nope.
-
I really enjoyed your video, as a fellow Ontarian, it's great to see you cataloguing this. Thanks 👍

Ten of us tripped on acid in late seventies on a tressel over the black river in Lorain county Ohio just as big..climbed all over it that night and all of us are still alive
-
Cool. Thanks for sharing.

i worked on the tresle bridge in iroquois falls ontario same bridge with side guards but man when i drove on it with the all terrain forklift and you could see all the way down through the mesh in the center of the bridge on top made me very uneasy ......foreman said what ever u do dont turn your wheels in the center screen might not support the weight....i pukered up every single time...lol...bridge is still there its on u tube but mill is long gone like most of our pulp mills in northern ontario...love your video be safe...lots of fuel 2 partner always in the bush..and a good lunch....yes im french lolo take care im out

Little bit of overkill with the speed bumps before the bridge! Love these adventure videos of yours.
-
Wow!! That's a monster of a structure. Don't think I could've crossed that even if it had the ties. Greetings from southeast Pennsylvania.

Awesome man, love another northern exploration page 🤙 hope to see ya out there, "Spanish River" area
-
New guy here. I just stumbled across your channel and I'm so looking forward to checking out your videos. If they are all as good as this one I'm definitely hooked. I love this type of thing. I don't know why I haven't came across it before because this is alot of what I watch. You just never know when it comes to YouTube. Anyway I will definitely see you in the comment section again soon 👍 🇨🇦

neat bridge. would been neat to see how it looked in operation
-
It's in much better shape than the bridge that fell down in Pittsburgh a few years ago.
-
That drive in reminds me of driving into Armstrong. IIRC, that road was about 150 miles and only the first 30 or so was paved.
-
The numbers on the rails are either the weight of rail or year manufactured. Was hoping you read the numbers. I guess It would be Hamilton ONT where bridge was built. Good drone footage.
-
C'mon Rob! You climb fire towers!! Its just an unsafe bridge!😂🤣 Nah, cool piece of history and great drone shots!! Thx for sharing!!
-
Pretty sweet!
-
Or does Hamilton mean the steel girders came from Stelco or Dofasco in Hamilton?

Hi Rob, is this the line from Sioux Lookout to T bay that was abandoned close to 20 years ago ? They used to break up the train up there to pull the auto racks destined for T Bay and backtrack them. CN didn’t want to do that anymore, and Ford products destined for TBay where trucked back from Winnipeg, and eventually GM followed suit. That’s when the rail unloader auto yard closed. Imports destined for distribution in Northern Ontario were trucked in all the way from Vancouver, and where as far as I remember never railed into TBay. They say life goes on, but this bridge is another example to contradict that. Thanks for recording this piece of fading history.

Reminds me of the Skead Trestle Bridge. You can get there down highway 17 past Wanapitei.
