BRIDGES TO GO
UP THIS FALL

All Steel In Local Railroad
Yards Ready for Send

Of the 27 new steel bridges to be
constructed on the Alaska railroad
this summer, ten of them will be built
between Seward and Anchorage. The
work of constructing the interior
bridges will proceed first it is stated,
with the bridges on the Seward end
of the road to go forward this com

The location of the various steel
, structures is given as follows: Mile
> 32, Mile 33, Mile 37, Mile 14.5, Mile

| A crew of ten men have been at
work in the local yards segregating
the huge spans of, steel which average
12, 15 and 20 tons each. This local
’work will be completed this coming

the freighter Oduna the last of the
bridge steel is on hand and as the
work proceeds the steel will be sent
from the Seward yards to the sites
for building.
The first and the largest of these
new structures to be built will be at
Talkeetna, where four spans will be
swung across the river, a distance of
approximately 300 feet. This bridge
will be of the viaduct design. The
next large bridge to go up will be at
Mile 432.1 across Coldstream river.
The big bridge at Ferry is now com
pleted and the Healy river bridge will
be finished shortly.
Twenty cars of steel were loaded
here Saturday, a train being sent
north last evening. There are yet
about 28 cars of large steel yet to be
loaded and in addition at least 80
cars of smaller pieces. The large
steel will be loaded on flats by Wed
nesday in order that the hoist may be
sent up the line to pick up a broken
down car after which the crane will
be run into the shops for an over
hauling.
