Anacostia Railroad Bridge

Successor Penn Central Railroad rebuilt the bridge in 1972.

The lift span is occasionally raised for boat traffic.

The lift is controlled by a CSX bridge tender located nearby at Benning Rail Yard.

On November 10, 2007, a unit train carrying coal derailed and caused the collapse of the northern span of the bridge.
