Vignette-Iowa Democrat

Around the line at Riverbend And off the bridge into quicksand Raised later by many hands- Brushed & dusted,still very neat Back into service,a story hard to beat ! Note. The train fell in the creek in 1891,rescue then proved in vain Four years later it was raised frpm 100 feet deep with little damage thereto. Waste not want not in those days! We could learn much from this approach in this 'green' era
