Greetings!

	Muchas, muchas, Gracias for posting the enclosed URL - had no trouble
assembling it.  Have just looked at the thumbnails so far, but shall
take a more detailed look in a few minutes.
	The photographer in 1974 certainly has experience taking bridge photos;
probably processes his own film as well.  The clarity and detail in the
thumbnails is astounding.
	I'm anxious to see the Model Railroad club near Gibsonia that has made
an HO model of this bridge with a little compression; Bob Rathke pointed
it out to us.
	Will you be doing a Smithfield St. bridge for one *or-more* of your
modules?
