The railway bridge in the States, located on the Oder near Nowa Sól, is one of the longest and most impressive railway bridges in Poland. Its history, spanning over 120 years, is inextricably linked to the development of rail transport in the region and turbulent historical events. The construction of the bridge began in 1905 and was completed in 1908. It was a gigantic engineering undertaking. The bridge was designed as a steel truss structure, consisting of several spans supported by stone pillars. Its length was approximately 640 meters, making it one of the longest structures of this type in Germany at that time. With the opening of the bridge, transport in the entire region was significantly improved, and Nowa Sól gained a new, important rail connection. During World War I, the bridge did not suffer any major damage, although its strategic importance increased. The real test for the structure came with World War II. At the end of the war, in 1945

The Lipiny Odrzańskie railway station was established together with the construction of railway line no. 275, connecting Wrocław with Gubin. This line was crucial for the region, enabling passenger and freight transport. The section through Lipiny Odrzańskie was launched at the end of the 19th century, or more precisely in 1876, when the section from Rudna Gwizdanów to Nowa Sól was opened. For years, Lipiny Odrzańskie station played an important role for the local community. It was a point from which residents commuted to work, school or markets, as well as a place where agricultural and industrial goods were loaded and unloaded. The station building usually housed a ticket office, waiting room and apartments for railway employees. After World War II, railway line no. 275 came under the management of the Polish State Railways (PKP). For many years, passenger and freight traffic was maintained. However, over time, in the face of the development of road transport and a decrease in the number of passengers, the importance of local rail connections began to decrease. Finally, at the beginning of the 21st century, passenger traffic on the section through Lipiny Odrzańskie was suspended. The last passenger trains ran on this line until 2004, after which it was withdrawn from regular traffic.
