The bridge was burned by an arsonist in 1991 and rebuilt using surviving framing. The original bridge spanned 90 feet in one span, but has since been modified with a pier at the middle of the span.[2] The bridge crosses Owen's Creek and is surrounded by a park.[3] HistoryLoys Station Covered Bridge was originally built in 1848.[4][4] Between 1929 and 1930 the bridge was reinforced with a concrete pier and steel beams. The bridge gets its name from a Western Maryland Railroad station that stopped nearby the bridge in Loys. In 1978 the bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places. In 1991 the bridge was burned down by an arsonist who was trying to fraudulently collect insurance money. The bridge took three years and $300,000 to rebuild and was rebuilt to match the bridge as it was in 1930 after having been reinforced. Most of the cost of reconstructing the bridge was covered by insurance. On 4 July 1994 the bridge officially reopened for the public.[5] In October 2013 the bridge was damaged twice by vehicles, but quickly repaired both times.[6] References1. ^{{NRISref|version=2010a}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://roads.maryland.gov/Index.aspx?PageId=227|title=Loy's Station Covered Bridge|date=2008-10-03|work= Historic Covered Bridges in Maryland|publisher=Maryland State Highway Administration}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://mht.maryland.gov/secure/medusa/PDF/NR_PDFs/NR-1345.pdf |title=National Register of Historic Places Registration: Linganore Farm|date=August 1977 |accessdate=2016-01-01 |author=Cherilyn Widell |publisher=Maryland Historical Trust}} 4. ^{{cite news|last=Coates|first=Patricia|title=Frederick Bridges, Uncovered|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A36601-2004Jul8.html|accessdate=21 April 2014|newspaper=The Washington Post|date=9 July 2004}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|last=Smedley|first=Jim|title=Loys Station Covered Bridge|url=http://www.mdcoveredbridges.com/loys.html|work=Maryland Covered Bridges|accessdate=21 April 2014}} 6. ^{{cite news|last=Loos|first=Kelsi|title=Loy's Station bridge damaged|url=http://www.fredericknewspost.com/news/crime_and_justice/police/article_623aecf1-6dab-558f-9767-6884ec92d1a2.html|accessdate=21 April 2014|newspaper=Frederick News Post|date=18 October 2013}} External links{{Commons category}}
