Stephanie Dann only came up with one barge, and was the lead tug. Molly M. I was on the stern. The Radium Barges came up a day or two later with the tugs M.R. Kane and Radium Yellowknife, with different equipment for a different port.

[quote="Guest"]When Stephanie Dann transitted the Welland Canal upbound, she was the rear tug which had 3 Radium barges loaded with equipment . is she only returning down the Seaway with 1 barge on this voyage?[/quote]

I'm pretty certain you got two different tows mixed up. Stephanie Dann came up the Seaway with the barge JMC 180 and was assisted through the Welland by the Nadro tug Molly M1. I believe their destination was Detroit.

The Radium Yellowknife pushed 3 barges of turbine components through the Welland assisted by the Nadro tug M.R. Kane. Destination was the power plant near Kincardine, Ont.

An empty barge. She unloaded in Detroit.
