HANNIBAL, MO. -- Here's a followup to those barges that broke loose on the Mississippi River at Hannibal Monday.

It looks like both bridges were not damaged in the mishap.

That's according to the Hannibal Courier-Post.

The Missouri Department of Transportation sent a crew out to inspect the Mark Twain Memorial Bridge.

One train was delayed for 90 minutes to accommodate the inspection.
