Schuylkill Arsenal Railroad Bridge is a wrought iron, two-track, deck truss swing bridge across the Schuylkill River in the University City neighborhood in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[1] It was built in 1885–86 by the Pennsylvania Railroad.

Today, its swing span has been fixed shut, and the electrical catenary de-energized.

The bridge is named for the Schuylkill Arsenal, which operated from 1799 to 1926 near the bridge's eastern approaches.[2] Its western approach runs past the University of Pennsylvania's Meiklejohn Stadium.[3]

In January 2014, a CSX train carrying crude oil derailed on the bridge.[4]

Original bridge

The 1886 bridge replaced the original Arsenal Bridge, which was built by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1861 and put in operation on January 27, 1862[5] as part of the Delaware Extension. It carried a single track over three wrought-iron spans on stone piers and a central center-pivot swing span.[6]
