The old Atlas Imperial would not be considered a common rail design?
BTW: wish there was more nautical pics on this site, but love it anyway!

Tug Bloxom is still there, went to see how much damage was done by superstorm Sandy and it is still there.
Pretty cool; on Google Earth i can see that some wrecks have been there since 1995, at least, - and there are T R E E S growing on them! Amazing! This site is stirring, and my mind and imagination always goes berserk and whirling! Hahaha true Fun Every Day! Thanks, Mr.M!

Happy lucky day for me just stumbling into this Amazing Fantastic shipwreck gallery! This site is so huge! Like shipwrecks - and followed cult "American Star" in detail until she disappeared off Funteventura, Spain. She was HUGE - and lasted a really long time. (Over ten years!)
Here it was very difficult for me to understand the size of the ship, sometimes. Never mind! The pictures you take are fantastic. (Am so beat now, dude! And my heart is beating! Panting, hahaha: Fun EVERY Day!)
Inside the ship...a very dangerous workplace for the photographer, too! M

All these ships here could've been towed out to sea & sunk, for use as an artificial reef. Those create life & would've been a better use of these once proud ships. While I like this entire gallery, seeing a ship on the ocean floor with fish swimming all around it & other sea life using it as a home, is awesome.

This place was actually featured on a show on the Travel Channel called Off Limits. The host had to tour around in a kayak. I say no f*ing way to that.
as to the idea of exploring this poor old wreck-no thank you ! they are certainly fascinating to look at,but the idea of falling through a rotten deck to drown in filthy water is the sort of nightmarish death that I would prefer to avoid if at all possible.
