This appears to have been a super neat three-span whipple truss bridge. I wonder what the main span length was as well as the total. Too bad this county appears to have been one that let all of their historic bridges fall into disrepair so they could replace them. I have been to the location and have a feeling the bridge was replaced before 1980 because of how the trees have grown and the UCEB was beginning to look shot.
Thanks Tony, I liked how the article described the bridge as a spiderweb over the river
