Mr.Brashear;


I now understand your reference.  Nothing on the maps show
any connection between 2nd and Forbes(?) or elsewhere.
Tracks are clearly visible aren't they.  I am not familiar with
the streets here;  I guess it is a considerable grade to Forbes.
Is this bridge still in place?  Was it replaced?
