Bernadotte Bridge

The Bernadotte Bridge at Bernadotte, built in 1910,[2] is one of nine metal highway bridges in Fulton County, Illinois listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The bridge is located along County Route 2 between Smithfield, Illinois to the north, and Ipava, Illinois to the south. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 29, 1980, along with the eight other bridges, as one of the "Metal Highway Bridges of Fulton County".[1] The bridge is one of three[3] near Smithfield listed on the Register, the others are the Buckeye Bridge (now demolished)[3] and the Tartar's Ferry Bridge. A fourth bridge near the Smithfield was included on the Register but removed in 1996, following its 1995 destruction.[4][5]

gollark: With the other mods I at least have to expend a bit of intellectual effort on setting up a small production chain to make gravel and feed it to sieves and craft pieces into ore (and then my entire ore processing system is quite complex but that's not needed).
gollark: Exactly!
gollark: The solar panels are just multiblocks which sit there making arbitrary amounts of power for no particular reason. There's a void *resource* miner which is just the void ore miner but for grass and obsidian and stuff, which is also a boring way to avoid making any production for diverse arbitrary resources you might need but is also required for the ET stuff because it makes "mica".
gollark: The advanced ones are an add-on.
gollark: The pack's overall tiers at least require fairly diverse things on each tier. The inscribers would, if I cared about that, be interesting to automate through ME subnetting and such. Thermal Expansion has fairly weak gating (internally) behind hardened glass stuff.
