Any explaination for this weird rail curve ?????

PRO

I don't know for sure. From what I've read, it is believed to have been caused by heat from a fire. This was an "upside down" covered bridge. Designed with rails on top, and trusses below which were covered on the sides to protect from weather. Taken out of use around 1976, and burned by vandals in 1980.

That would make sense if the ties were charred.
