Thank you, Paul.

I had ridden this years ago when it was the Ol' Augusta, but don't
remember whether or not the power unit (I don't know the correct term)
pivoted while the barge stayed still.

I also meant to mention that the RW Naye is powered by an Alco 16-251B
diesel when I posted the picture of it.

I was surprised that such an operation still exists, which begged the
question, at least for me -- how many river ferries are there, nationwide?
A quick Google brought up a map and attendent information here, and now I's
astonished......
