Excerpt from https://bridgehunter.com/id/bonner/bh58051/

The first railroad bridge was built in 1882, as part of a three-hundred-mile segment of track constructed west from Heron, Montana, to Wallula, Washington. The original bridge, updated in 1905, was constructed with wooden pilings and ties cut from virgin timber harvested from the surrounding forests.

Was looking at the BNSF website and found a link to Warren Buffett who owns the railroad along with the company that makes the "oil train" cars people are so freaked out over.
