<p>I just got off the horn with a friend of mine who works in downtown Cedar Rapids (9:58 AM 6/11/08). She said <strike>the railroad bridge at 8th Ave. (old MILW bridge) has been destroyed</strike>, the former CNW bridge downtown at Quaker Oats (old CNW passenger line) is nearly submerged, and that the Quaker Oats yard is completely under water (the old CNW & ROCK yard). They've issued mandatory evacuations for the TimeCheck area. </p><p>I clarified this with my friend - she had the Waterloo bridge story (18th St. bridge) confused with the local Cedar Rapids situation. The rest is confirmed.</p>
