Just an FYI --- for those that want to get some shots of some of the last "river" carferry aprons on the Great Lakes, as well as the P.M./ C&O boatyard here in Port Huron, you will to need do it this Spring --- CSX will be pulling out (rail and all) by June.

Below, the yard in some of its busiest days of the late 1970's. The yard was relatively unchanged from its 1900's look, at least on the P.M. Side. Last carferry operations were 1995, when CSX obtained trackage rights through the new CN St. Clair River (Now the "Tellier") Tunnel.
