The Railroad Bridge at Sc. John

During the past year several references
have been made to the new railroad bridge
now building across the St.John river for the
New Brunswick railroad. The general plan
of the bridge is like that recently erected on
the Michigan Central railroad over the Nj
agara river, except that the st. John bridge
will be through instead of deck bridge.
and will be the first through cantlever bridge
ever erected. The main span will be Al feet
from the center of the piers, the shore arms
being l43 and 100 feet long respectively, max
ing total length of $40 feet from center to
center of abutments. The girders are placed
20 feet apart on center, and are 2S
feet deep at the ends and center and 65 and
so feet deep over the piers. The track on
the bridge will be supported by four lines of
steel stringers, and three lines of lateral
braciug will hold the bridge against wind
pressure. The masonry of the main bridge
will be completed in June, and the erection
of the main bridge be begun about the first
of July. 1t is expected that the whole line,
including the river bridge, will be ready for
the passage of trains from the Intercolonial
to the New Brunswick railway early in the
fall As the bridge will prevent the neces-
sity of breaking bulk between the Eastern
Provinces and the United States. it is ex
pected that large amount of freight will be
diverted from the present water routes to a
quicker passage by rail.
