Just looked at Historic Aerials site and that was route 61 back in 1957,
with a multi span bridge south of the dam.

I am fairly certain that this photo is north of East Dubuque, just south
of MP 189. The overhead bridge in the background is Bridge 188.84,
which I believe is access to Dam 11, and may have been U.S. Highway 61
many years ago. The semaphores are at about MP 188.95. These were gone
by the early 60's, replaced with searchlights, so the photo was taken
sometime between 1954 (dome cars are present on NCL #25) and that time.

Can anyone identify the real location of this photo of the NCL on ebay?
