The
Whipple Truss Bridge in Clifton
TE post card archive |
Although
the caption of the post card on the right gives the location of the
bridge as Waco, alert reader
Paul Newsome identified it as the Whipple Truss Bridge, still standing
at Clifton:
"That [post card] is most certainly a picture of the Whipple
Truss Bridge in Clifton, a Texas Historical Landmark, built in 1884
by Wrought Iron Bridge Company.
Another angle of the bridge as well as more information can be found
at: http://clifton.centraltx.com/history.htm." - Paul Newsome,
