Thanks to Jason . . . first two fotos by Franz Von Riedel. During the early 1980s, the North American Towing Company bought the Green Bay, renamed her the Oneida and moved her to Duluth, Minnesota. This foto comes from her time working the Twin Ports (smoking away) until roughly 1987, when
Wellington Towing purchased her for work around Sault Ste Marie. Great Lakes Towing bought out Wellington Towing about 1990 with the tug going to Cleveland as the Alaska. This is a 1998 Alaska foto by Franz.
Here she was in Lyons in 2000, foto by Jason LaRue.
At this moment , November 2011 she awaits her one-century mark in Lyons, NY. As the crow flies, she’s only a dozen miles from Lake Ontario.
I’m hoping the Kahlenberg fires up soon. I’m routing for you.
Bottom two fotos taken yesterday, November 28.
More Detroit fotos soon.
