Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Looking NE from levee near 32nd Street and Rudd Avenue. Railroad cars on approach to K&I (Kentucky and Indiana) Bridge.

Signage on car reads, "We can handle it / the Union Pacific railroad people". Vehicular lanes with fences can be seen below the railroad tracks.

This bridge was completed in 1912, replacing an earlier, lighter bridge which was completed in 1886. It is currently (2016) owned by Norfolk Southern Corp. The bridge has two sets of railroad tracks, with lanes for vehicular traffic cantilevered out on each side. Trains still cross the bridge, but the vehicular lanes were closed in 1979. There is an effort to reopen the bridge to pedestrians and cyclists. Louisville, Kentucky. Mar. 1988.
