The swim bridge at the crossing site near RHEINHAUSEN under maintenance. The pontoons of the swing bridge section are brought on land (utilizing a special slip designed by Mr. Oswald) and sand blasted and spray painted. Sometime later, the pontoons of the swim bridge and the heavy rafts were transported to a German shipyard for general overhaul.
