Milwaukee S Curve Trestle - Tacoma WA
Author: Steve Carter
Date: 11-09-2019 - 10:57

Just about 2 years ago now, the historic Milwaukee S Curve trestle in Tacoma WA was replaced by a double track concrete bridge for use by Sound Transit and Amtrak (now delayed due to the Cascades 501 - Dupont derailment).

I documented the razing of the wooden trestle and construction of the new bridge and occasionally posted reports here about that.

I recently finished my documentary on the project, that includes two time lapse sequences.


So, if you're interested and have a few minutes, here's link to it on Vimeo in 4k.

A Bridge to the Past
