Steam Towboat
TAURUS
Towboats, like the TAURUS, were a
familiar sight in every American har-
bor and navigable tidal flat at the turn
of the century. Graceful, yet function-
al, they pulled large liners and
pushed heavy barges with ease. Dur-
ing the 1930's, steam engines lost
ground to Diesel propulsion, and
by the 1960's the steam units were
all but gone. A few steam tugs sur-
vive today as museum relics.
