It was named for Joshua Chitwood, who lived nearby during construction of the railway, 1881–85.[3] The line was originally known as the Yaquina Route of the Oregon Pacific Railroad, linking the former port city of Yaquina to Corvallis and Albany.[4] After the Oregon Pacific failed financially, fell into receivership, and went through 17 years of financial and legal complications, in 1907 it became a branch line of the Southern Pacific.[5] The post office in Chitwood opened in 1887 and closed in 1945.[3] Lincoln County built Chitwood Bridge, a covered bridge, at Chitwood in 1926. Scheduled for demolition, it was instead improved in 1984 through a federally funded restoration project. The Howe truss bridge is {{convert|96|ft|m}} long.[6] References1. ^1 {{cite gnis|id=1136148|name= Chitwood|entrydate=November 28, 1980 |accessdate= July 26, 2014}} {{Lincoln County, Oregon}}{{LincolnCountyOR-geo-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite book|title=Oregon Road and Recreation Atlas|publisher=Benchmark Maps|location=Santa Barbara, California|year=2012|edition=5th|page=58|isbn=978-0-929591-62-9}} 3. ^1 {{cite book | last = McArthur | first = Lewis A. | authorlink = Lewis A.
