A Splendid Feat.

Undoubtedly the principal item of interest was the great steel viaduct at Waikoau. Crossing the river some 235 feet below, the great undertaking soon gave to the sightseers an idea of the magnitude of the work involved. The great steel girders, supported by massive towers set in heavy concrete foundations, were viewed with something like awe. Some idea was gained from this work of the other viaducts that are to be erected further along the route, two of which will be much larger structures.
