While similar to the Newell Bridge and Railway Company structure at  
the north end of East Liverpool, see the flicker link below, and  
notice that the piers are taller on the Chester Bridge, the towers  
have caps to support the cables, and the approaches slope on the  
Chester Bridge and not on the Newell Bridge.

The postcard showing the Chester Bridge shows a single truck car of  
the East Liverpool Traction and Light Company, which was later rolled  
into the Steubenville, East Liverpool and Beaver Valley Traction  
Company.   Wikipedia indicates that the Chester, West Virginia - East  
Liverpool, Ohio bridge was built in 1897 and replaced in 1977 by a  
newer structure much more suitable to modern traffic demands of US  
route 30.

As an aside, the Newell Bridge and Railway Company still owns the  
other bridge.   Some of you may know the name Fiestaware or Fiesta  
dinner plates, saucers, cups, etc.  They are manufacturered by Homer  
Laughlin China Company of Newell, West Virginia.   Homer-Laughlin  
built a trolley line to get its workers to the plant.   It ran all  
the way from East Liverpool on the Ohio side of the river.   And the  
trolleys ran over the company-owned bridge.   The trolleys quit about  
1937 but if you buy a round trip or commuting ticket book on the  
Newell Bridge today, it still reads Newell Bridge and Railway Company.

I'm sending a copy of this to Frank as a warning in case any of you  
should drop him a note.
