Manning-Rye Covered Bridge
The Manning-Rye Covered Bridge, spanning the Palouse River near Colfax, Washington, was built around 1918. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It has also been known as the Harpole Bridge. It was a work of the Spokane & Inland Empire Railroad, an interurban electric railroad. Its "timber housing protects a single span timber Howe truss which rests on timber pile abutments, encased with timber cribs." Although it is deemed a covered bridge, the top of the bridge was left uncovered to allow for connection between the locomotive and the overhead electric lines.
