Steel Truss Railroad Bridge with Freight Cars, Early 1900s Travel Snapshot
A sailor's snapshot of a steel truss railroad bridge, complete with freight cars and a movable swing span for river traffic, taken during the early 1900s. Pasted into a naval photograph album alongside images of shipboard life aboard USS Columbia and her contemporaries, this view reflects the everyday travel and shore excursions that filled a sailor's off-duty hours during the 'Old Navy' era.
