The Tug Pennsylvania Appears

 Like I said in a previous post, I headed down to Wendy Park to catch a ship.  It has been a while since I've been to Wendy Park and I was surprised at all of the improvements.  They added a pedestrian bridge over the railroad tracks.  The road leading to the park was paved and so was the parking lot.  They cleaned up the train leading out to the Coast Guard station.  I was amazed.

When I got by the river, I saw this guy passing me.
It is the tug Pennsylvania and it is owned by Great Lakes Towing.
It replaced an older tug that was built in 1911 and I believe this one was built in Cleveland.
I will have to say it looked pretty cool.
It guides the ship in.
