Don is close to finishing his model of the Detroit
to Windsor Car Ferry Manitowoc. Of course it's HO scale 1/87
which puts her at 45" long with a beam of 9.25". These are
some of the most unique car ferrys ever built. They may look
like a simple barge, but they are far from it! Somehow they
manage to pack two steam engine below deck, with enough
power to push though the winter river ice!
Launch date on November 10,2000
