    Thanks for posting this one. About 45 years ago the bridge tenders let my brother and I help close the span.

    Well done Paul. A rare look at the Job of a Bridgetender.

    Interesting. when I was there a couple years later I’m sure it was operated by someone off the bridge. Did they change the mechanism?
