Christmas on the Waterfront

 

Undated corporate Canadian Dredge & Dock Christmas cards showing tugboats and dredges at the Kingston yard. Note the switch over time from grey to black hulls. (Queen's University Archives CD&D fonds.)

A 1978 Christmas letter from the head office in Toronto.
Nearby CD&D, the Bayswater vessel Baygeorge is unloading the last cargo of the season at Kingston, undated.  Note Christmas tree on the unloading boom - it was common for ships to decorate for Christmas. Between coal piles at right is the end of the Sowards hopper car unloading trestle. (Brockville Museum 016.04.22)
