Shame is that it was being dismantled by CSX in 1984 when the city of Athens GA purchased it to keep it from being demolished any more. It is the same Trestle that is pictured on the back cover REMs' 1983 album Murmur. They are building a bike path on the old right of way and they are trying to decide whether to restore the trestle 100%, add a new section and restore what is left, or demolish the whole thing and put up a new bridge over the stream and valley. I am hoping it is the first.

The first picture is the trail from the south at grade level looking at the demolished end.
