The was facing south along Louisiana Highway 308 at Lafourche Crossing, milepost 51.64 on the SUNSET ROUTE. Bayou Lafourche is on the other side of the trees on the right, and Louisiana Highway 1 is on the other side of the bayou. Because the bayou is so narrow, the swing span was built with its center pier on the east bank. |

SP Bridge |
| Description: |
This view was facing north along Bayou Lafourche at milepost 51.7 on the SUNSET ROUTE, when it still belonged to the Southern Pacific. Louisiana Highway 308 is on the east bank of the bayou and runs under the 177-foot inactive swing span, while LA 1 is on the opposite side of the bayou. The bayou runs from the Mississippi River at Donaldsonville down to the Gulf of Mexico at Port Fourchon. |

Sunset Route |
| Description: |
In this eastward view of south Louisiana Bayou Lafourche flows across the image from left to right, on its way from Donaldsonville on the Mississippi River to Port Fouchon on the Gulf of Mexico. The Southern Paciific's SUNSET ROUTE enters from the lower right, crosses the bayou in a clump of trees, and curves to the east as it makes its way to Raceland and then on to New Orleans. |
