The Lanfield Hollow Railroad Bridge was constructed in 1890 for the New York, Ontario & Western Railway (O&W) over the Beaver Kill in Delaware County, New York.

This two-span Warren through truss bridge was abandoned in 1957 when the O&W mainline through the Catskills was decommissioned. It was later repurposed as a private access road for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to reach state-managed lands. The bridge underwent its last rehabilitation in 2006 to address pier scouring and deck issues.
