Hi Skip -
The photo of the cement bridge in Kapaa was most likely part of the Ahukini Terminal & Railway Co. This ran up the east coast of Kauai and connected the Makee Sugar Company with the Lihue Plantation Company and the better Wharf at Hanamaula Bay. The line was a common carrier for 12 years (1921) and was later absorded into the LPCo and operated until 1959. A short history on the line in in Best's "Railroads of Hawaii" book. Aloha John
