She was still self-propelled and earning cargo credit in September 5, 2017, when I saw her near Mackinac Island . . .
Ditto two days later in windsor and a bit later
she was running down bound past Wyandotte,
allowing me a close-up of her oxidation.
But today, thanks to Fred Miller II for these photos, she’s down bound again, but behind a tow line of Evans McKeil, with
tail steering provided by the iconic Cheyenne.
Many thanks to Fred for the last two photos. All others by Will Van Dorp.
How about some irony: Evans McKeil, shown here n Montreal in October 2017 with barge Metis,
was built in Balboa, Panama in 1936!! Algoway‘s keel was laid in 1972 in Collingwood, and she’s headed out for scrapping in Turkey.
Cheyenne has appeared on this blog many, many times, most recently after I caught her in the Oswego River in September 2017 as she headed for Detroit.
