Crossing the Potomac into Washington DC

"The 1903 (rebuilt 1943) Long Bridge carries CSX, Amtrak and Virginia Railway Express rail traffic over the river. The name "seems to have been derived from its planned size and not as a memorial to any particular individual"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/14th_Street_Bridges

This is the Through-truss swing span of Long Bridge.
