The cape Cod bridge has those pointed tops on the towers... Try putting some of Ben Dorsey's Goethals_Lift_Bridge_2H (or the 1H single track version) side by side till you get the right number of tracks.
Ben Dorsey made many bridges, 1934 according to CM with "Author: bendorsey" and "Keyword: Bridge" in the filter. He would start with an actual bridge and then play with the design, usually adding or subtracting spans or tracks, but might put in other variations of all sorts. Finding the right one of Ben's bridges can be a project in itself, and you will probably end up with a dozen extra ones for later.

I have a number of new ore ship and loading docks based on the facilities at Duluth, not released yet including the lift bridge at Duluth:

Gorgeous. I have had NS bridge one in Cleveland half finished for years. I started re-working an old route loosely based on Sandusky/Cleveland/Huron ect. I hope to finish the bridge but am wondering what lake freighter that is?
 
The ore carrier is the Arthur M Anderson. I also have the Kaye E Barker, the Erie Trader barge (unpowered) and the tug pusher Joyce Van Enkevor to move it. This is an unusual combination, the tug enters a recess at the stern to lock the two together.

This is the Thunder Bay ready for loading at the Duluth taconite ore loader facility:

There are a number of rail bridges, trestles, new ore unloading facilities and an update to the Soo locks with added buildings, to make a complete ore transport operation.

Nice. Are these available?
 
There is this one by the late bendorsey. <kuid2:210518:11184:1> Celilo_Draw_Bridge_7, 2 tracks. Is that bridge in the photo one in NJ near Newark? NJ Transit? Also, there's this one. <kuid2:210518:10574:1> Goethals_Lift_Bridge_2H

Only the 70 tonne taconite hopper cars have been uploaded, I was going to do a thread on how to use the models, but haven't taken the screenshots yet.
