Abstract

A description of the newest bridge of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company across the Ohio River at Cincinnati, Ohio, is given in this paper. The recorded history of this important crossing begins with a paper by William H. Burr, M. Am. Soc. C. E., entitled “The River Spans of the Cincinnati and Covington Elevated Railway, Transfer and Bridge Company.” The purpose of the present paper is to provide the next chapter of this history. The bridge built from 1927 to 1929 to replace the old one (which was completed in 1888, and strengthened during 1916) is a double-track steel structure, continuous over three spans.
