Yes, removal of the bridge just south of Mesta Stop.  Without going digging 
for the family photo album, wasn't that the fantrip that included a last 
PERC trip on 94,95,96?  (where's Jim H. when you need him)  It predates my 
35mm camera, so would probably be 1961.  (maybe I should 'digitize' prints 
from my negs of that trip, and start a monthly auction on eBay <g>.
