Electric railway companies invested in trestles to cross coastal waterways.
In 1897 alone the Portsmouth, Kittery and York Street Railway constructed 10 trestles. Call's Trestle, between Kittery Point and Cutts Island, stretched for 512 feet.
Many of the trestles were used for decades before they fell into disrepair.
