would have sucked if some peasant with an oxcart was coming along under that bridge at the same time.

peasant is probably insensitive to some group, Ox driver then.

thanks for sharing!

thought it was a train track?
 
Can't be real - it wasn't an RV. We all know only RV pilots do stupid stuff like that, right Doc?

:rolleyes2:

No, RV guys would have done that in formation, then performed an overhead break.
 
"Hey, Charlie! Are you sure you gave me the right dimensions of that opening?"

(Bath, Maine: Sagadahoc Bridge; and the 1927 Carlton Bridge which is now closed except for railroad tracks which are on its lower level. The draw is still functional(obviously). The Sagadahoc has sufficient clearance that, if a BIW ship were to "get away" in the tide there's enough clearance for it to pass under the new bridge).

And the old bridge is between BIW and the new bridge. So wouldn't the old bridge protect (shield) the new bridge from a wayward ship?

Never heard of one "getting away" from BIW.

I've crossed that old bridge many times.
