Overseas Railroad Abandoned FEC Bridge number 1. This is the first former oversea railway bridge in the Florida Keys that remains standing. It is just South of Islamorada alongside the bridge that replaced it on US 1 aka Overseas highway which goes to Key West at the Southernmost point in the continental United States of America. Construction began in the early 1900s and was finished in 1912 when Henry Flagler arrived in the first train to Key West. Some people say there was plans of extending it to Cuba but I think that it would be impossible to build a 90 mile railroad over the ocean don't you think?
