I grew up in Clarksville.
Up until I left, the Spadra creek bridge was the same wood trestle.
For me it was always the same bridge. So replacement would have been mid 50’s or earlier
Some time after I left in 1972, the rail from College street to end of track was replaced with a road.
The road bridge for Cherry street was put in in the 60’s. (Just downstream of the RR bridge)
My house was across the street from the Station.
Never took a single picture of a train. Stupid teenager!
My earliest memory is of my Dad running out to mail a letter by handing it to the RPO car agent.
