On November 21, 1924 Captain A. R. Morse accidentally steered the 600-foot steam "Merton E. Farr" into the Interstate Bridge. The Interstate Bridge was the only non-railway bridge connecting Duluth, Minnesota and Superior, Wisconsin at that time. The Great Northern Railway, which owned the brdige, put eight barges and a crew of 100 men to work to clear the wreckage and rebuild the brdige. This image shows the efforts to rebuild the bridge seven days after the accident. Caption reads, "Broken span Dul-Sup Bridge taken from east end of open draw span 2:30 p.m. 11-28-24."
