Neifkrs Items of
Giant Bridges
(By Graham McInnes, in Canadian
Railway Employees Monthly)
When you're travelling by train
and the roar changes to a prolong-
ed metallic rumble, you know -ev-
en without looking out of the win-
dow -that you're going over a
bridge. Canada is a land of giant
railroad bridges. Our rivers are
Wide and on the whole, swift flow-
ing, and they have to be crossed.
Of bhe 15 longest bridges in° the
world, three are in Canada. Be-
hind these bridges -behind your
easy passage over a mile -wide riv-
er or a deep gorge -lie miracles of
engineering.
Railroad bridges differ from high-
way bridges in that they must be
dead level and enormously strong.
An average passenger train with
locomotive may weigh close to 1650
tons and it may hit a bridge at 60
m.p.m. You can easily see that
such graceful airy structures as
suspension bridges are ruled out at
once. We have some very fine sus-
pension bridges in Canada -notab-
ly the 1000 Islands in Ontario and
the Lion's Gate in Vancouver, but
they'ce not for railroads. But in
the other five main types of bridg-
es, railroads are well represented.
These five types are the cantilev-
er, the single arch, the viaduct,
the truss bridge and bridges that
break in the middle, either swing
or bascule -that is, opening either
horizontally or vertically.
When Canada's engineers were
putting through our railroads they
were faced with many tough en-
gineering problems. Out of them
have come bridges which are world
famous, not only masterpieces of

Two carloads of Hensel] Girl
Guides attended the ice carnival
held in Clinton on Friday, prizes
being won by Margaret Reid, Judy

captain of the Girl Guides. Paul-
ine Bell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Stewart Bell, won the costume
engineering but things of great
beauty as well. Who will say that
the spidery grace of the Quebec
Bridge doesn't belie the 77,000 tons
of structural steel which it con-
tains? Where can you equal the
majesty of the Lethbridge Viaduct
rising on its slender towers over
300 feet? Can you better the grace-
ful curve of the single arch bridge
over Stoney Creek in British Co-
lumbia? Bridges are fax from dull.
Like the best of architecture, they
are often frozen, music,
The Quebec Bridge is Canada's
showpiece among cantilever bridg-
es. It has the world's longest can-
tilever span -over 1800 feet. The
story of its building is perhaps too
web known to repeat here. The
bridge, as you may know, carries
the Canadian National tracks
across the St. Lawrence eight miles
above Quebec City, it also carries
a highway. Work on it was begun
early in the present century, but
in 1907 the entire southern canti-
lever collapsed, due to faults in
the design. and carried 84 men to
their death. The irony of it was
that the chief engineer was aware
of the fault and hurried down to
New York for talks with the con-
sultingengineer to the Phoenix
Bridge Co. of Pennsylvania which
had the contract. Due to a tele-
graph strike in New York City, his
wire to the company was delayed
for several hours, and by the time
it had been agreed to stop work on
the bridge they thought it was too
late to wire Quebec, as the men
would shortly be coming off shift.
Minutes later, the bridge collapsed.
Ten years later, in 1917, the two
cantilevers were completed, but as
the center span was being raised
up by powerful jacks. a casting
broke and the span crashed down
into the river, killing another 14
