A rural Missouri town has the distinction of having a ‘World’s First’. I present the site of the first railroad all steel bridge that crosses the Missouri River into this town of 1,103 residents according to the 2010 census.
In 1880, the population was 1,841 and a port for riveroat departure/arrival. I’m sure the first sight of that new structure gave plenty of excitement to those residents during the 1878 completion. This current one is the replacement. Maybe someday I’ll happen upon a picture of the original?
Til then here’s the view of the modern version built in 1960 as it stretches across the Mighty Mo.

Lol now that made me chuckle! Funny thing is we tried to have a glass of wine there overlooking the river but the place closed at 5 pm. Far far away in Glasgow Ireland they’re rolling eyes at this I’m sure😉

Faraway in Glasgow Scotland, they’re definitely rolling their eyes! Lol!
That’s a shame that you missed out on the glass of wine, it looks like a wonderful place to stop and have a wee drink 🙂
