We still have a few down here in Columbiana County. There was one on Wayne Bridge road and it sat just a few feet from a farm i use to farm , Yea it was picturesque but it was a thorn in my backside . As it had a 4 ton limit , was to narrow to get the disc or corn planter thru or the haybine or the combine as it was not high enough or load bearing enough . Use to cringe taking the 706 across it by it's self let lone with the plow hooked to it .The 706 weighed in at 12500 . The only way in was a long ride of like fifteen miles to come in the other way from the other ground i was farming . Then one night the bridge went up in flames . A coal company had started stripping coal about two miles up from the bridge and had asked the county to build a new bridge so they could move the coal out easier then the six miles up the back road that was not to good as it was mostly one lane . Nobody can prove it but they think that someone sprayed diesel fuel all over it and then lit it and due to the location of this bridge no one lived close to it and by the time someone saw the glow the flames were shooting above the trees in the valley and by the time the fire dept got there she was charcoal and floating down the creek. Now the county had to do something and they build a new Million dollar bridge on a 75 cent road . They put in a perstressed concert bridge in that could hold everything a bridge on the interstate could hold. yea it made it nice for me , but the coal company is the one that made out like a bandit .
