Sorry, he has the date wrong.  That line opened in Summer 1908.  We have
"builder's photos" of the bridge (and its partner at the south end of
Allison), which I still take tours to when we're in the area.

This introduces you to an amazing new discovery ...

He discovered a trolley bridge made of this wondrous new material called
concrete ... brand new in 1912.   Maybe someone should tell this guy that
the Romans were using it 2000 years ago!
