Looking SW from Indiana bank just above K&amp;I Bridge:
<p>Crew from River Salvage Co. working to remove asphalt
from sunken Magnolia Marine Transport barge (MM53)
which broke from tow of "Kelly Lee", crashed into swing span of K&amp;I Bridge and sank on its port side.
Swing span was designed to rotate on central pier, thus allowing vessels to pass through during high water, but probably has not been opened since about 1920.
"Max K" and derrick barge at right.
