[CBQ] re: bridge N of E. Dbq depot

["Gerald Edgar" <gvlc6@hotmail.com>]

Per my photo collection & track diagrams, there was an underpass at one time 
but was for drainage.  The steep street near east tunnel entrance is in a 
narrow canyon-like valley which funnels a LOT of water down to the Mississippi; 
the then viaduct, now a drainage tile takes it away from the IC & Q mains.  
YEARS ago there were mills or warehouses between where the current depot is and 
shoreline but they were gone before the Lock & Dam went in.  What is the model 
detail if you model pre-"43 or so is the old vehicle bridge, the approach to 
which remains.
Otherwise if you model post-WWII the only changes are 'new' depot (approx "58), 
raised tunnel roof ("70's-80's), CB&N roundhouse gone (early 90's) and new BN 
Engineering bldgs.
