This beautiful cut stone substructure was reused on the replacement bridge.
...And yes, this may be the only covered bridge to die by electrocution!! ;-)
Good add Melissa!
I've known about this bridge since I was a teenager, but never thought about it not having a page on here! I must say that since I returned to Indiana in 93' I have been paying a lot more attention to metal trusses. Seeing the last 2 in my home county being demolished and a fortuitous conversation with Jim Cooper had a great deal to do with that! Plus the covered spans are only affected by Mother Nature and idiots... either with matches or that don't know how to drive!
Thanks Tony ! I enjoyed your phrase "tying the other shoe"
