Santa Fe Bridge 1911 - El Paso, Texas

The picture shows Santa Fe Street bridge, which connected El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juárez, after a snow storm in 1911. American soldiers were patrolling the border as a result of the Mexican troubles due to the Mexican Revolution. The Santa Fe bridge had been erected in 1887 and was replaced in 1927. One can see the streetcar rails, connecting the people of the two cities.
