Houston-Benton Ferry Turnaround

One of three operational ferries remaining in Tennessee, this Ferry shuttles vehicles and passengers across the Tennessee River between Houston and Benton counties. Which also makes a passage from Middle to West Tennessee. I was impressed at the maneuver which allowed the ferry to shift its wheel and powerhouse around at the start of each journey. Here if is about 3/4 of the way through the maneuver. When underway she is back against the side of the cargo deck. A fun ride at only $1 per car, and I am told locals have a cheaper daily rate.
