The Stone Bridge spans the Conemaugh River in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The bridge is a seven arch stone railroad bridge located on the Norfolk Southern mainline. Built by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1887. This bridge survived the Johnstown Flood of 1889, but the bridge blocked debris causing a temporary dam which subsequently caught fire in a deadly thirty acre inferno. The bridge is visible from Point Park in downtown Johnstown.
