Description
English: ELEVATION OF TRUSS, FROM NORTH, WITH TRAIN - Chicago & North Western Railway viaduct over Des Moines River, near Boone, Iowa. This bridge is one of the last projects of noted bridge engineer George Morison, who died two years after the structure was built. The bridge was the longest and heaviest viaduct of its time, and may be the longest extant double-track railroad viaduct in the world. It is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.Historic American Engineering Record, Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division:
