    The first bridge built to carry the railroad over the Mississippi River, connecting Memphis, Tenn to West Memphis, Arkansas. The Frisco Bridge… final answer.

    If he isn’t using some sort of aid, his place spotting skills are truly impressive.

    I made a few assumptions. 1.) It’s old, 2.) railroad only, and 3.) steel, so that puts it mid to late 19th century. I was pretty sure about that. 4.) It’s in the US. I wasn’t totally sure but I thought it was a good guess. Plus there was no reason to start the search outside the United States. 5.) That’s a wide fucking river and if it is indeed from the time frame I thought it probably means it’s not west of the Mississippi.

    So it’s the Mississippi River or another big one in the eastern US. Then I was off… I got lucky because all my assumption were correct this time. So it only took a few minutes after that.

    I’m using my brain first… then the internet.

    Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.
