The start of the Rebuild was in January with the
drilling of the four columns that will house the steel-enforced
horizontal supports for the trestle.
2/19/2009: Forwarding to where the first of several column supports
were going up. Steel-enforced concrete was to be poured.

gallery, well this is it now.
