Woodland Street Bridge Opening, Nashville, TN (1885).

[If I sort through the platitudes, it claims that this was the first trip on the first bridge across the bridge. I agree with that. It also claims 1885. I don't agree with that. It had to be before 1850 because the 1850-1886 bridge was a suspension bridge.]

Looks more like the Woodland Street Bridge, 1885. The railroad bridge is about 1600 ft down steam.

1850

This was a suspension bridge.
