Title	Panhandle Bridge, Louisville, Kentucky.
Description	Panhandle Bridge over the Ohio River at Louisville, Kentucky. A train is crossing the bridge, moving toward the viewer. A house-like structure sits atop the trestle. This bridge, known also as the Pennsylvania Railroad Bridge, spanned the Ohio between Louisville and Clarksville, Indiana, and was completed in 1870. It featured a rotating trestle (under the "house) to allow boat traffic along the Portland Canal. It was replaced in 1917. The current structure is known as the Fourteenth Street Bridge. This image was created prior to 1917. Published by F.M. Kirby & Co.
