>From the "Structures" file of
the ICC's 1917 inventory, Bridge #893
was identified as "1st Crossing of
Tug River".  It was composed of two
thru plate girder spans, one was
102' 9" and one was 104'9". The
substructure was completed in 1890
and the superstructure (manufactured
by Virginia Bridge and Iron)in 1911.
ICC form indicates that bridge was
equipped with steel sidewalk brackets
for a pedestrian walkway.  
 
Also included was a photo of the 
bridge made on Jan. 31, 1920.
