The next picture is the same type rolling lift bridge that is gone now outside of East Providence, Rhode Island also on the New Haven Railroad circa 1964 both bridges opened the same amount. This bridge is identical as the center section of the bridge that is 9 sections wide over the mouth of the Connecicut River and Long Island Sound.....Ted
