4 / 4   Bridge closeup

Description
Here is the best bridge picture I got zoomed in as much as possible to show some interesting details. The swing bridge is 310 feet long, much longer than the 182 foot Newark Slough bridge, and therefore has a larger control hut up top. I count 3 large windows on the visible side, while the Newark Slough hut only had one window on the side. The increase in size may be due to a larger amount of machinery needed to rotate this bridge. Also visible are three towers, two on top of the wings, one on the hut. These may be signal beacons or lights, or something else entirely. I would really like to see this bridge up close, or atleast a diagram or photo of the interior of the hut.
