    While not exactly a bridge, here are some pictures taken 3/12/2010 of the Frisco overpass in Cuba, MO across Main St (both directions).

    Note the Frisco Lines coonskin hidden by the clearance sign.

    Nice, but not as nice as the deco overpass near Beaumont, KS.

    For whatever reason, the rectangular height signs were temporarily removed for a short time a few years ago, and the entire Frisco logo was exposed.

    I've seen that overpass cause problems for more than one oversized load.

    They usually have to detour from E. Washington St. (Old Rt. 66) onto Rutz Subdivision Rd., then onto Hwy PP.

    Good view of the small Cuba yard at the Rutz crossing.

    Keith ,

    Which way were you facing when you took the overpass pictures?

    Was I-44 ahead of you or behind you?

    It's been a while since I've stopped at Cuba on my runs down to Rolla/Newburg/Springfield.

    I guess the last time was for 1522's last run.

    Went under that overpass many, many times on those summer fishing trips down to Dillard.

    Cuba is on the south side of I-44.

    In the first picture I was facing north, I-44 was in front of me.

    The second picture I was facing south with I-44 was behind me.
