Plate Girder Highway bridge

[streamline j1e]

Hello peaple. I am tring to model a section of NYCRR waterlevel route that runs here in Palmyra, NY thanks to the CSXT Rochester secondary. The era I am doing is around 1912-1990 when the old overpass was replaced with a modern one. The overpass was a steel plate girder bridge and I am tring to find niformation on suppliers or how to model a prototype, it was part of the main route from Palmyra-marion,NY and the highway was NY 21 n. Any information or such will be appreceated and also any help. Thank you in advance.

The Paul Mallory book on bridges should be useful not only for the drawings but for the information needed to make any bridge realistic and plausible.
As far as sources, Micro Engineering makes plate girder pieces. There are of course the Atlas bridges and Atlas offers the plates separately as flat car loads. If those are too large check out what they offer in N scale as well - I spliced two N scale plate girders together to make what I needed for HO. One of the European structure makers, Kibri or Faller or whatever, makes plate girders too
