Title: |
071101008 CP/SOO bridge replacement project over BNSF Northtown CTC 35th |
Description: |
Temporary switch for bypass has been removed and both mains are severed today as tracks are finally spliced back into original configuration. This signals the end is very close for the bridge project. |
