Description
Depiction of the Radial Bridge in Oakville, with one of Oakville's public schools in the background. The Hamilton Radial Railway operated between Hamilton and Oakville and the tracks ran along what is now Rebecca Street. The Anderson Bridge replaced the Radial bridge in the early 1960s.

The school was the old Central school on Navy Street. Today, the central library is on this site.
Notes
An earlier printing of this postcard misspelled "Radial" as "Radical" on the front.
