First Photograph Taken of The Northwestern’s Huge Electrical Draw.

 The Herald today presents the first picture of the great electrically driven draw of the Chicago & Northwestern, taken since the new bridge was opened for traffic. The picture is taken from the Iowa shore, south of the new bridge.

Speaking of Clinton, IA. What's the status of the new UP bridge over the Mississippi?

Is the surveying done, is any grading been started? Is there a timeline as to when construction will start?
