Beauty! What's the story on this model?
Here is the website for this repository of Americana. I don't know if there is info on the bridge model:
Not sure what the exact story is regarding the bridge, American Treasure Tour is a huge collection of cars, circus related items and mechanical music players. Surprisingly virtually no model trains in the collection.
Ther appears to be possibly American Flyer items on the bridge.
I want one!! 
Here's one in 1/48th scale...
The Hell Gate bridge at the American Treasures tour is an HO scale scratchbuilt model made by Howard Booz who has since passed away. I remember when he built it in the early 80's. So glad it was saved. He was crazy fanatical about the Pennsylvania railroad. Had a rediculously amazing collection of PRR in HO trains. Was a good friend of my father's.
Mr.Booz was one of the owners of the old West Point Amusement Park in West Point, PA.
