She was sold for scrap, overseas I believe.

Thats it. Except for the marine. The old clarkson coal dock has almost completely rotted away and the Reiss Coal Dock 1 has been converted to a park. The base for the ore dock may be is good shape (the city's trying to save it for a fishing pier/park in the future) but the area around the ore dock h...

There's no way they're using the existing dock. It hasn't been used since 1965 and is in horrible disrepair. In the summer they have bouys around the dock that say stay back 80 feet.

I watched her come into Fraser and as she passed a crewman said they were in for welding. She's now in drydock

I know washburn received shipments in the past but I've only seen a photo of a Bradley boat unloading there. Also Ashland still gets a load of coal least once or twice a year. Usually the john j boland, american mariner or h.lee white.

They still use the chutes on the 2 docks in Two Harbors and the chutes on the dock in Duluth that are behind the conveyor system.

anyway someone could send a photo to the news page of this?

the models not horribly off. here's a photo of her before any conversions.

they reached an agreement to prevent the shut down.....for now

yea it is and its still in the same spot. I'll try to remember to get a picture the next time I'm up there. The funnel was sticking out of the water

Looking for photos of the Chester Congdon. TIA

still on the bottom last week and I havent heard anything about raising her and when they do I'm sure its off to the scrapyard for whats left of her

Sue could u drop me an email at [email protected]

Even though she's an ore carrier the Badger doesn't have one. Also the CTC 1 doesn't but if she's reactivated she would probably have on installed.

I was up these about a week ago and it looked like they were doing work on the hull. I didn't have my larger lens on so I could get a very good shot but attached is what looks like a section of hull being prepped to be lower into dry dock. Maybe once they finish they'll paint it.

that's what he was when he was still in business. Last I heard he was down south working on the railroads

Have any photos and how much?

Laker. Looks like the Quebecois but it could be the Montrealais

Did she get painted?
