"Pin-connected Pratt through truss bridge over Maumee River on Wheeling & Lake Erie RR" [Lucas County index for BridgeHunter]
The bridge is "1,315.0 Feet (400.8 Meters)" long and has a main span of "345.0 Feet (105.2 Meters)." [HistoricBridges]
It is surrounded by industry on both shores so I can't get a decent street view of it.

This is the post that motivated researching this bridge because this is the bridge that is in the background.
