… except perhaps for the J.A.W. Iglehart at the upper left. She has been there for two years now, and is probably retired for good from her career carrying cement on the Great Lakes. The Canadian Navigator came into port this morning and will follow the John D. Leitch (she came in Tuesday morning) loading iron ore pellets at the CN Dock in West Duluth. She is just moving into Murphy Fuel to take on fuel while she waits for the CN Dock. Behind her and to our right, the John G. Munson is also getting ready to load iron ore pellets at the CN. She will move there later today from her winter berth there at the Port Terminal. Probably sometime tomorrow, she will depart with her cargo for Gary. Further to the right, you see the American Century at her winter berth at the Port Terminal. And in the foreground, a train of empty cars is moving into position at White Box Duluth Storage (formerly Cargill) to load barley for Shakopee. Eventually, the barley will find its way into bottles of beer from Anheuser-Busch.

Ken,
Thanks for allowing us to stay in touch with not only Duluth, but the shipping traffic. Your site is one of the ways we keep in touch with our beloved North Shore and the Lake.

Ken,
How do I find the ship activity list for the ports of Duluth/Superior. I am so friendly with this site that I became use to looking up when ships were to arrive.
I am still down in Largo, Florida until the 3rd week of April then will head back to that area.
Thank you Ken, I do appreciate your Web-site, very much.
Mike: Thanks for kind comments from Boston. We are still waiting for more traffic, especially under the Lift Bridge. Jill, you forget we are in Duluth here and we are used to the cold!! But it is nice to hear from you and Paul down in Texas when you are both warm.
the bag is off; they are working on the scaffoling now; they should finish is 4 or 5 days i think
Ken,
Is the plastic bag off the bridge yet?
HA-HA, Paul!! Thanks, Ken, for braving the cold to get these pictures for us. We all appreciate it.
