Coming into Johnstown from the south is a three-span thru girder bridge crossing the Stoney Creek River. The center span looks like it was removed from another bridge somewhere else. All three spans appear not to sit on the original abutments, but on concrete blocks added later. Makes one assume the original spans were wrought iron.

Any story on this span?

Are you referring to the B & O bridge at N 40.30664 W 78.91498? or the one at N 40.28307 W 78.91621?

The three-span bridge near Conemaugh Hospital (crosses over Valley Pike).
