THE TRESTLE : HISTORY Operations began on July 4, 1931 The McKinley Bridge served as Route 66’s first Mississippi crossing. It also played another role as a transition between Route 66 and an earlier form of transportation: the electric interurban railway The interurban rail system was a larger, faster and cheaper version of the electric streetcar that helped develop industry and connect communities on both sides of the Mississippi
