 | 1-03. Temporary bridge to Solombala, and a tram crossing over the ice - looking from Solombala. Car of 'the Domestic' type. A temporary wooden bridge over the Kuznechikha River was erected each May every year since the early 1900's, and disassembled prior to the ice-flow. Next to the bridge, a tramway line over the ice connecting the Solombala network to the city center operated during winters between 20.01.1917-03.1917, 11.1917-01.01.1918, 11.1922-03.1923 and 11.1923-19.02.1924. A permanent wooden bridge with tramway tracks was opened on 19.02.1924, but lasted only until 05.1925. Trams operated over the ice from 11.1925 on again. During some winters the temporary bridge would be built, during others trams would operate over the ice. The practice lasted well into the 1930s. A permanent bridge with a permanent tramway link was opened nearby in 1956. (Arkhangel'skoe TTU, from Aleksandr Morozov collection, circa 1920s) |
