Taken from HILA ex USS ATR 89 this is either PRR CHESTER or WILMINGTON or possibly OLEAN

The numbers took up six inches, if they were on a curved space they were longer but still took up six inches of draft, then there was six inches of space, 6 plus 6 equals one foot of draft.

This is "HILA" the former USS ATR 89, A Rescue tug. Built North Bend OR. 10-1944. The pictures and site are great. There were two other ATRs at other end of yard, they were Meseck tugs after Navy service. That is the straight Skinny!

DISPATCH was some sort of small tanker, I will get the correct info and get back with it.

The twins are New York, New Haven and HartfordRailroad tugs, they were Both TRANSFER # ? and TRANSFER # ? Abram S. Hewitt, is next in line, it is a FDNY Fireboat, big wheel was where the hose was rolled on. Hewitt was built in 1903. Reciprocating pumps,

The red boat is the Pennsylvania tug "BLOXSOM" It hauled coal from Cape Charles Va. Was formerly a U.S. Army tug. The ferry near the Turnpike is the Staten Island Ferry Mary Murray built 1938. Astoria was a NYC ferry that ran from one of the islands up north, Rikers Is.?

This ship was built in North Bend OR, cool, Thats where I live!!

This boat is " HILA" ex USS ATR 89 Built North Bend Or. 10-1944 Wood Hull, steam powered. The scrapyard had two others that were Meseck boats after Navy.
