[PRCo] Re: Rankin Bridge (identify these pictures) redux

[Edward H. Lybarger]

There was a fair amount of temporary track in this project.  Somewhere there
is a picture of a car coming down an alley on hastily constructed track.

No question at all that the building end in Derrick's pictures
matches identically the one in the Railroad Avenue pictures.   And
the bridge piers are also dead ringers for it.   But I cannot figure
how the trolley got to the front side of the houses?    I'm assuming
that the bridge construction was not yet finished and they were still
ramping up to the old Rankin Bridge and that a new pier would later
block this scene?
