Salt River CR 472 Bridge

This bridge was replaced this fall by Bleigh Construction of Hannibal MO. We live near by and have some side railing as a souvenir. I have several photos during the process of tearing down and rebuilding. We loved the old bridge and was very sad in it's dismantle.

Does anyone know the current status of this bridge? If it is still available, I would like to see confirmation that it is truly a Pan American bridge co. product. I am from New Castle, In. and a local group is looking for a New Castle made bridge to move. Any info or pix of bridge would be helpful. Thank you.
