What is the name of the Bridge that VIA's Canadian go over and is in the form of an arch that caries the VIA's Canandian over? Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry used this and the Poughkeepsie Bridge to model theirs on a train set. Was the Canandian Bridge always one tracked? when was it built?

Thanks

The Canadian goes over very, very many bridges on its journey across the country. You could be thinking of the Cisco bridge on CN over the Fraser River near Lytton British Columbia.

It might also be Stoney Creek Bridge in Rogers Pass. CP used it for publicity photos including The Canadian. VIA's Canadian no longer follows this route but the Rocky Mountaineer does.
