Icebreaker ALE

Onboard passenger steamer S/S 'BOHUSLÄN' passing the locks and canal at Trollhättan.

 

Icebreaker ALE moored by the "Russia crane", built in the 1920s to hoist steam locomotives built by Nohab in Trollhättan onto ships to be shipped to Russia. Russia had originally placed an order for 1000 locomotives, but this was later reduced.
