Looks to me like it was swept completely under the bridge by the current. The apparent shifting of the tower on the bridge looks like it's due to parallax when the cameraman moved to the downstream side of the bridge. While the bridge probably has the same clearance sign on both sides, the high-tension lines (looks like there's two sets of them) are both on the downstream side. (left hand side if I have all this correct)

Notice how nice and level the tops of the piles of coal are after they've made the trip under the bridge....use two *level* bargefulls of coal.
