Built in 1885 on the Canadian Pacific Railway’s main line in the Beaver River valley of British Columbia, Canada, it was 490 feet long and 292 feet high, making it the highest wooden structure in the world at the time.

Stoney Creek Trestle was replaced in 1893 by a 336 foot steel arch bridge (kuid: 109522:32104) that was built around the wooden trestle so as to minimize disruption in traffic on the rail line.
