I crossed this bridge many times in 1964. Going from Scott AFB up to McDonnell at Lambert Field. The "toll" was 10 cents. A guy would be standing in a little booth in the middle of the roadway. Brings back many memories of those days. Thanks for this.
I’ve been across the bridge a number of times (back in the day).
Had to look up the history. Surprise! It is still used by trains.
(Very interesting history).
I remember traveling across this bridge when it was active to the Westling at the chase loved it thanks for memories oh by the way , it used to flood bad in this area it was called Rush City it now all gone except the ramp
That's pretty cool been through there never knew about that bridge. cool vid.
AbandonedSC I just found out about that bridge like a year ago too. its so covered over with massive trees and the freeway there that you can't even see it.
Is it still like this? Would love to check it out. I live north of Chicago but I have family that lives near Alton Illinois so that's why I would be down.
Righteous Dude!!
Thanks!
Crossed this bridge many times going to White Castle (the burger place in St Louis).
Welcome to fallout 4
When I lived there I pretty much had a narrow window of time between winter and summer twice each year if I was lucky, to do anything cool.
Oh wow!
Nice work! You can try to share on my video if you like. I approved the video, but then it vanished??? UA-cam is a bit finicky sometimes.
ah, thank you. your video is what made me want to find this place.
I'm glad you did. Most people are afraid of the area.
Unbelievable that the deterioration of all of the bridges and the end of Highway 66 started with Decommissioning it in 1985. Sad because this country blows more of our money on other things like Emigration and other projects that would easily have kept this Historic Highway open.
