You are describing Harrisburg not Marysville. Looking north in this photo, you see the ex-Reading RR bridge, then the Cumberland Valley RR bridge, the piers of the Market Street bridge, and finally the piers of the Walnut Street bridge. http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=140218 The South Penn RR bridge was between the much later ex-Reading bridge and the CV RR bridge. Looking east from Lemoyne, you see here the capped stone on one of the surviving piers of the South Penn RR bridge. http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=138889 Dave [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Modelcar ...A photo in a book I have has a view of the SP RR pylons appearing to be constructed of large shaped stone and capped with a large concrete top. In the background {on the left}, is a stone arch bridge all the way across the Susquehanna River and a city or town is visible on the other side of the river. Photo by William M. Metzger and in my "South Pennsylvania Railroad" book by Walter F. Walton. I don't know if that is a pic of the Rockville bridge or not....There is an island near the center of that bridge. Also don't know which side of the river the photo was taken. [/quote]
