I'm not sure if we have a notability guideline for bridges, but this doesn't seem to be a notable one. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 17:24, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

  • Keep Over 100 years old, the longest viaduct of its type in the US, third longest in the world, sufficient in-depth coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. It goes by other names that were not in the article when the nomination for deletion was made. It would be okay if TPH & his otters &c. withdrew the nom in light of the additional info.

  • Keep. Notability clearly established by many mentions in books and articles. See in particular [http://books.google.com/books?id=0xciRjGU1PsC&pg=PA112&dq=%22tulip+trestle%22]. Meets the general notability guidelines. Cool3 (talk) 19:21, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

:See also [http://www.ingenweb.org/ingreene/illinois_central/greene_trestle.htm] which is a very long account and cites many other sources. Cool3 (talk) 19:25, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
