Ah hell, I'm not done yet. This is the Meridian bridge in Yankton, SD. It's two levels, originally designed for railroad on the lower level and vehicle traffic on the upper, but ended up just being used for vehicles for many years, one way on each level. It has since been replaced by a modern bridge nearby and is now converted to a pedestrian bridge.

Since we're posting bridge pictures, here's one that I took in South Korea long ago on a trip there. It was some "lover's bridge", but I don't remember the story.
And when I departed on my freighter a couple of years ago, we went under the Bay Bridge (second picture) and the Golden Gate Bridge (third picture - not a great picture, but it was dark). I took a deep breath going under the Golden Gate, because at that point I was committed for 19 nights and I still didn't really know what I was getting into. But it ended up being great.
Isn't the Bay Bridge the double decker that collapsed in several areas in the '88 earthquake? I don't recall it being a suspension bridge...has it been replaced? [Reply]
