The fillwas 400 feet long and 95 feet deep. A light wooden tower was builtin the middle, making the cable spans of 200 feet each. Two cablesof 2^-inch diameter were used and were spaced 7 feet apart hori-zontally. On top of the cables, 8-foot logs were laid and fastenedwith U bolts. These carried a pair of stringers which, in turn, sup-ported the ties on which the rails were laid. The train of cars wasbacked out to this suspension bridge and the first car dumped as soonas it reached the edge of the fill and it was then pushed out on thecableway to permit the next car to be dumped and so on. Light wooden bents were placed on the bank near the top of theslope to stiffen up the cable under the loa
