Historical Arrivals: November 18; Former Erie Visitor May Have Sailed Her Last

Historical arrivals for November 18:

1948- HARRY YATES arrives in ballast from Buffalo for the Pennsylvania Railroad Coal Dock, where she loads a cargo of coal for a return trip to Buffalo.


Lower Lakes Transportation's CALUMET, a frequent Erie visitor under that name and also in her previous life as USS Great Lakes Fleet's MYRON C. TAYLOR, hit a wall in the Old Riverbed of the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland on Friday, causing damage to her hull. The 79-year-old vessel, due for her five-year inspection this winter, may have sailed her final days as a powered ship.
