I grew up in Watson which is near this bridge. At one time my Dad worked for the Missouri Pacific railroad and helped paint the cofferdams that was used as forms for replacing one of the concrete pillar supports for the bridge. He was lowered by rope to the bottom of the cofferdam at the river bed lever to paint the forms before concrete was poured.
