Written By Elliot Koeppel

Crookton Overpass, a concrete stringer bridge over BNSF Railroad on Crookton Road (Old Route 66). It’s open to pedestrians, but has been closed to traffic for many years. The newer bridge next to this one was opened in 1956. Maybe it’s time for a third bridge?

It was definitely fun to walk across this old bridge, especially when a train went by underneath!

The ATSF and the BNSF both utilize this set of tracks.

Pieces of the old road on each side of the bridge.

Probably the two most famous "Bench People" at Knott's Berry Farm. They have a unique tie-in to those giant Dinosaurs out at Cabazon, along the 10 Freeway. Checkout this link to read about it: https://www.exploratography.com/blog-cal/cabazo
