Bridge over Railway Road Block. The road still clearly shows the marks of the slots for removable steel road block. On the east side of the bridge are anti-tank pimples on both sides of the road. On the west side of the bridge in the wooded area are signs of slit trenches. The parapet walls of the bridge would have been removed to give a clear view of anyone trying to cross the bridge. This is part of the Corps Stop Line.
