Whipple Truss Bridge in Clifton

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, January
