NICHOLSON... the City of the Bridge

TUNKHANNOCK VIADUCT
This reinforced concrete structure was the largest of its kind ever built when it went into service in 1915 on the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad.  The bridge, 2,375 feet long and rising 240 feet above Tunkhannock Creek, was the focal point of a 39.6 mile relocation between Clarks Summit and Hallstead.  The novelist Theodore Drieser called this viaduct "one of the true wonders of the World."
