There are long tunnels on both sides of the bridge.

Not the most beautiful bridge, but huge. Near Clarion, Pa. Abandoned in the early 80s. There are tunnels on both sides. In the 70s, some friends and I jumped a slow moving coal train and rode over the trestle and thru one of the tunnels. Not my photo.
