Tulip Trestle in Richland Township, Indiana

Rising almost 160 feet high and running over 2200 feet Tulip Trestle dominates a low Indiana valley. Built at the turn of the last century to service the strip coal mines of southern Indiana, it stands as a reminder of the region's history. There is a small viewing area for pictures and picnics. From there there the enormous scale of this construction becomes apparent. It's difficult to describe how it overwhelms it's surroundings. Heartier souls still walk its length. It's located close to Solsberry and the YOHO General store as well as the sculpture trail. It's well worth spending an afternoon getting to know this lovely area of southern Indiana.
