WORK IS NOW IN PROGRESS
ON RILEY CREEK VIADUCT
According to advices received by
The News from Bridge Engineer
F. H. Chapin, who is in charge of
all bridges and work of a like
nature on the Government railroad,
the first steel bent of the big via
duct at Riley Creek has been placed
in position, marking the beginning
of operations in connection with
the erection of the structure which
I will span the gap at that point, of
which Riley Creek forms a small
part.
A gang of about 30 men, under
Bridge Foreman James McGill, is
engaged in the erection of the
structure and it is confidently ex
pected that by at>out the end of
February trains will be run over it.
' Nearly all of the material for the
1 b:g structure has been received.
; There are about three carloads
more to come, but Mr. Chapin is
hopeful of being able to continue
operations in spite of snow condi
tions along the road south of Riley,
which might possibly delay the ar
rival of the balance of the steel.
Road conditions permitting, the
rest of the material will be delivered
during the coming week, with the
exception of two pieces of steel
which were bent enroute and which
must be straightened before they
can be put in place. It is believed
this work can be done in Anchor
i age without serious delay.
