SHOVEL READY
TO PUT GRAVEL
BEYOND BRIDGE

The work of surfacing on the
main line south of the Nenana river
will receive considerable impetus
during the coming week, with a re-
sumption of steam shovel operations
near the Crossing. The new bridge
spanning the Nenana river at AS
Mile should be completed tonight,
and it is expected that the first
train since the washout last spring
will pass over the structure tomor-
row morning.
The present plan is to leave the
shovel at the Crossing, where it last
operated, and to move the gravel
from that point to the southern
section of track, beyond the river,
where much surfacing work will be
necessary to put the track in shape
for heavy traffic.
