Here is the third of four original photos by Douglas C. Jones that were taken just East of the 17th Street Bridge in the Juniata section of Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1953. Prominent here is a high-and-wide load ~ namely, a new gantry crane built by American Bridge. In the background is the southwestern face of the 50-stall East Altoona Roundhouse; to the left of it are the two Roundhouse water towers and the access ramp connecting the Bridge (not shown at the left) with the Roundhouse. |
