That was a really fast repair for what is essentially a branch line for the UP

They can throw up those modular precast concrete bridges to replace the burned wood approach trestles pretty quick.

Great they were able to reuse the through truss span. 
Apparently the heat did not destroy any of the  sections.  
BTW this line at one time not far ago went beyond Lincoln to Marysville, Kansas.
