Maitland No. 1

Photo by Bruce Drope.

 

Built in 1916 as a car ferry for the Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo Navigation Co., she ran for only 16 years. After a lay-up of 10 years, she was requisitioned in 1942, her engines going into other ships, while her hull was sold to Roen Steamship Co. where she was converted to a pulp barge. She still sails under her original name.
