Description
An account of the resource
This photo was taken circa 1925 and shows the "Doodle Bug" coming from Northport, Alabama.
The Mobile & Ohio (M&O) Railroad trestle is a wooden and steel truss bridge that was constructed across the Black Warrior River in Tuscaloosa for the M&O Railroad in 1898. Civil engineer Benjamin Hardaway, an 1887 graduate of the University of Alabama and former Tuscaloosa city engineer, designed the trestle. Originally 135 feet high with a 110 ft. clearance, it was once considered by many to be the country's longest trestle at 3600 feet. The designed included a passage for steamboats. The M & O ran between Columbus, Miss., and Montgomery. Until the M & O arrived, the Alabama and Chattanooga (known after 1878 as the Alabama Great Southern or AGS) was the area’s only railroad link.
In the 1930’s M&O Railroad became the Gulf, Mobile and Ohio Railroad and then the Illinois Central Gulf and then the Kansas City Southern.
