| This Scherzer rolling lift span and concrete bridge replaced an adjacent swing span and wooden trestle on the Illinois Central at Pass Manchac, Louisiana. The first train across the new bridge was Amtrak's southbound PANAMA LIMITED on 11 January 1972, behind IC E8A 4018. The lift span was converted to remote control operation from MAYS YARD in 1997. |
