A cool YouTube video that captures the ALGOWAY and CEDARGLEN still in active service, shortly before their retirement.

From the sides of the Welland Canal, the video offers a beautiful closeup look at these now classic vessels.

Two completely different ships; ALGOWAY being a self unloader with the forward pilothouse. CEDARGLEN has a much more complicated history...













CEDARGLEN
by RightInNiagara
Originally built in 1959 as ocean-going vessel EMS ORE with the superstructure amidships.

One of three sister ships that underwent re-construction, having the pilothouse and cabins moved towards the stern. The trio were easily identifiable on the horizon from miles away.

This one was re-christened MONTCLIFFE HALL after being acquired by the Hall Corporation.

She became CARTIERDOC after joining N.M Paterson & Sons in 1988. Purchased by CSL in 2002, she continued to operate as their CEDARGLEN until the end of the 2018 season.
