Wenatchee River Railroad Bridge

I was reading this article, which says the original railroad bridge over the Wenatchee River was made of timber. It also looks like it had three trusses. I found another photo from shortly after it was built (paywalled, but it was published in Wenatchee World) which shows a trestle approach to the south.

Does anyone know when the bridge was replaced, and if any elements of the original remain? The article says the original had timber piles, but I am not sure if they are the same as the ones that are there now.
