Landing Arrangements for a Car Ferry on the Mississippi River
Ferries for the transfer of railroad cars across bays and rivers have become so common that they have hardly attracted the attention from engineers which their merits really deserve. For not only do they enable us to carry, traffic without unloading where bridges are out of the question, but they do it so rapidly and cheaply that, even where there is no impossibility in the case, the building of a bridge is very often a matter of more than doubtful propriety, as involving a waste of capital.
