W.N. TWOLAN Arrives

W.N. TWOLAN and barge McALLISTER 132 finally arrived in Erie at 1900 this afternoon, turning in the basin and docking at the Mountfort Terminal to unload 4,907 metric tons of lumber from Thunder Bay, Ontario. The duo should be in port for a couple of days unloading.

This is the first non-bulk cargo handled by the port of Erie this year.

Turning. The duo was farther west into the bay before turning than most vessels are.


Straight on.


Turned and ready to head for the dock.
