A fact from Dearborn River High Bridge appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 27 January 2012 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
This bridge quite evidently does not have four spans. If the truss has four sections, the correct terminology I think is 4 bays, or 4 panels, not four spans. If the bridge had four spans, there would be three intermediate piers in the middle of the river, and that does not appear to be the case.

The lead says "of its type" without specifying pin-connected. The later sentence does specify pin-connected. That is, as I recall, the difference. We can reword it if it's too confusing.
