According to the book "Bridges", by Judith Dupre', C. 1997, this bridge is the longest concrete railroad bridge in the world.

Awesome video. How often do trains pass over th Nicholson Viaduct, and at what times of day?

It is the Tunkhannock Creek Viaduct. It is nowhere near the town of Tunkhannock.

I am aware of that. It is commonly referred to as the Tunkhannock Viaduct.

That viaduct is gorgeous! I'd better not let me son see this, or he'll add this place to his RR sightseeing wishlist for sure.
