Once you pass through the bridge the depths increase dramatically. We saw 30' going Northbound

The railroad bridge is in the open position except when a train comes through. The current is pretty strong. Stay alert. Follow the USACE survey for current depths. We had 13.9' on a rising tide.

Railroad bridge was open and unoccupied. Strong current, no marker board southbound.

Posted 11/2/2021 - the Kingsley railway bridge is having problems opening and closing over the last two days. An example is given below. "Around 11am today Tuesday the Kingsley Creek RR bridge closed and was unable to open. We arrived around 11:30 and anchored along with two other southbound boats, for one hour. Workers got it open and we passed through. A few hours later we heard on VHF that it was still having opening difficulties."
