Very nice tribute! So sad to see these ladies of the Lakes going to scrap. IS this a sign of the future that interest in our history is ending??

[LegoShipBuilder]

Yes. It's very sad.. to see that these majestic freighters are being repalce with ugly floating boxes....

[Frach438]

Not trying to be a smartie pants but I found the video on YouTube (I remeber this one) Search: Enigma - Return to innocence . Kind of interesting. But I don't want to take away from you great video. Peace.

[Steelhorsetransferco]

Nah Bro it is all good here you are not acting like a smartie pants over here your comments are always welcome. i was wrong i backtracked on limewire and you were right.

[Frach438]

Cool. Keep the vids comin!

[lakefreight]

You put together nice videos! It was sad to see her leave for scrap. I know many in Esky thought of her as an eyesore and was ready to have the block gone; as a boatnerd it is always sad to see the lakeboats being cut up. I was in Mackinaw as the tow passed under the bridge and took many pictures knowing it was the last time the L.E. Block would pass under the bridge.

[Steelhorsetransferco]

thank you for the comment i take it that you seen the video i done on the S.S. Edward L. Ryerson already? if not i think you will like that one as well.

[Steelhorsetransferco]

No she was sent to canada for the cut up. It was a sad day for my father he worked on it as a pipefiter during a layup in chicago in 1974.
