I live in the TC area, and yes, you can (could) see the GN Stone Arch Bridge from the overpass to the right as you travel south on the interstate. I've travelled over that section of I-35W countless times. I was surprised to hear the speculation about the Minnesota Commercial train moving slowly underneath possibly having something to do with the collapse. I hardly think so - I'm no structural engineer but I have been down in that area before and I'd never believe the vibrations from a train moving at 8 MPH in that area could affect the highway bridge.
