I believe that is the SP main line crossing over I80 at Auburn, CA.
That bridge is even bigger and more complicated than it looks in the photo!

As legend goes, when the need to widen the road arose,
the footings for the trestle (top part) were on the way
so the RR just slapped another bridge under it and called it a day!

Alwin:
thanks for the extra pics. From the new angles seems that the addition is somewhat wider than necessary also. Jose.
