Eastbridge, Arizona

Eastbridge was a railroad station on the east bank of the Colorado River in Mohave County, Arizona, United States.

It was located at the site of the first bridge the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad built across that river, three miles southeast of Needles, in San Bernardino County, California.

The wooden bridge across the Colorado River constructed between Eastbridge station and the California bank in 1883 was built across the wet alluvial soils of the flood plain of the Mohave Valley.

The construction was conducted during the flood season of the Colorado that began in May.

Finally the railroad changed its route southward along the California bank, to Beal, then to a place opposite Mellen, where from 1889 to May 1890 they built the Red Rock Bridge, a cantilever bridge, on rock foundations, unlike the previous site.
