It matches up with the Endicot Road Bridge from what I see.

Visited the bridge today. Cool park, plus nice to be able to drive over a pony truss that has been moved. Nifty little antique mall close by, too. Could this be Endicott Road bridge? http://bridgehunter.com/in/gibson/2600242/

Well okay then... I missed these comments! Yes, the # of panels match so it could well be!

Sure looks like it.

This bridge seems to look very similar to the removed Endicot Road Bridge and even has a slightly bent railing like that of the former bridge. Might they be the same bridge?

I did take a picture but I couldn’t find it. These google map images are pretty up to date and accurate as to what the bridge looks like though!
