Color postcard (14 x 9 cm) titled "Union Pacific Bridge, Omaha, Neb." at the top in red type. The number 6561 is in the far right corner. This is a view of a railroad bridge over the Missouri River at Omaha, Nebraska, as taken by someone standing on the riverbank looking up toward the bridge. There are four large structures in the river holding the railroad bridge above the water. Trees are seen along the shoreline in the distance.
This is the second Union Pacific Bridge built at this location south of Mason Street, built in 1889. It was replaced in 1916-1917 by the present structure still standing in 2006. Source: Don Snoddy, Retired Historian for the Union Pacific Railroad.
