Random run-in after visiting site of current Rulo bridges, drove west to Richardson County seat - Falls City, and the Whipple Truss RR bridge info and date plaque sitting outside Richardson County Historical Society warehouse, neat - wish it were open that day, would've loved to see what other bits were inside - this iron plaque is as huge as you'd imagine - what a treasure

Great shot Nick! Now you need to go east and get a cap (assuming they make one) from the Cutler General Store in Cutler, IN. Oh, nice plaque BTW... :^)
