The Pinkerton's Landing Bridge, officially designated as the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad Bridge at Munhall, is a truss bridge that supports CSX Transportation's Pittsburgh Subdivision as it spans the Monongahela River between the communities of Munhall, Pennsylvania and Rankin, Pennsylvania. The bridge's popular name is derived from its association with the 1892 Homestead strike.
Additionally, it is known as the Pemickey Bridge, a moniker originating from the former operator, the Pittsburgh, McKeesport and Youghiogheny Railroad (abbreviated P. McK. & Y., and pronounced "Pemickey").
