[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by sommerkamp wow--all I can say is that someone has done a lot of diligent work! we should all be grateful for this excellent contribution. I am not familiar with the upper Mississippi. I have crossed by rail at Newport, twice on the Milw Rd, at Ft Madison, Merchants, Eads, and MacArthur at St Louis, both at Memphis, and Huey Long at New Orleans. I have also used road vehicles by several where this was possible [some still rail have been closed to vehicular]. is McKinley at St Louis closed to vehicular? We may need new rail bridges to relieve New Orleans, especially if the Old River Structure fails and sends the Mississippi out through the Atchafalaya 80 miles west of New Orleans. Several geologists think this a real, even eventual, possibility. Theo Sommerkamp crosstie@wowway.com [/quote] The McKinley is closed at present for the purpose of restoring the bridge. It is scheduled to reopen in 2007.
