Unfortunately, I have been concentrating my search for suitable bridges to models a bit more complex to assemble than what you are looking for, so I don’t have any quick recommendations for other bridge models (or even know if others are out there, I’ve always had the impression that Atlas had about the closest to a line of pre-assembled bridges of any HO manufacturer).. But based on my experience as both a model railroader and structural engineer, here are some ideas to consider: You can always cut down the width of the river — say from 27″ to 18″. And use four of the Atlas bridge models I referenced above (2 on each track = 18″). Add a bridge pier (Atlas makes one, as do others) between the two spans.

You don’t necessarily have to use a double-track section for the center span. Railroads often crossed rivers as a
