This photograph is
believed to be the over/underpass at Claggett, just west of Messick.
Though not confirmed, the collector notes that the M&NE also had an
underpass at Walton but the track beneath would have been straight
at that point and this track is curved. The line on top is the
Ann Arbor Railroad and the line below is the M&NE looking northeast.
The photo dates from 1904 or 1905. The crew appears to be in
the process of changing this from a trestle to a bridge, preparing
to pour concrete sides in preparation for fill. [Charles Showalter
