Significance
The Zoarville Station Bridge is the only Fink through truss known to exist in the United States. Originally part of a three span bridge, it was constructed by the firm of Smith, Latrobe, and Company of Baltimore, Maryland, one of the most important bridge building companies in the United States during the late 19th century.
