Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox bridge The Immortal Ten Bridge is a bridge in Round Rock, Texas, United States built at the intersection of Mays St and the railroad in response to the January 22, 1927 crash of a passenger train into a bus carrying the Baylor University basketball team headed to a game at The University of Texas, which killed 10 of the 22 passengers.[1][2] The accident spurred the use of overpasses to improve safety with the bridge being the first railroad overpass in Texas.[3] Union Pacific donated $100,000 (Шаблон:Inflation) toward the bridge, completed in 1935.[4]
