I was looking at this bridge closer and this bridge entry is for the West Bound lanes (a concrete arch built in 1936). The East Bound bridge is from 1966 and is a steel stringer. If you look closely on satellite maps, especially Bing's Birds Eye you can see the 2 separate bridges in parallel.

Not Barnesvile, but Hagerstown, Maryland. Very different location
