BNSF 5846 and CN 2860 |
| Description: |
CN through freight crosses the frozen Wolf River via the former SOO bridge as it heads southeast at Gills Landing, WI on 24 Feb. '15. The bridge was built as a swing bridge in 1894. A significant mechanical failure left the pivot inoperable from 2003 until the fall of 2011, when it was converted into a vertical lift bridge. According to bridgehunter.com, it “is likely the only vertical-lift bridge in the world with a center lift tower”. |
