Highway 203 Through Truss Bridge

Photographer's Note:
"This 1939 Through Truss Bridge over the Salt Fork of the Red River is 753' long, 9 miles east of Wellington on Texas Highway 203.

Do not confuse this bridge with the Bonnie and Clyde "Red River Plunge" Bridge, which is north of Wellington on US 83 over the same river." - Barclay Gibson
