While this is off topic and subject, I just seen and noticed the James R. Barker is now due at Superior to load ore pellets late on October 26. They will then load for Nanticoke, Ontario. This will make the second time that an Interlake Footer has now delivered ore pellets to Nanticoke this season as the Mesabi Miner recent,y delivered a cargo of ore pellets there early this week. Before this year, I wonder when it was as far as the last time Interlake had one of their footers deliver ore to Nanticoke as it’s been quite a few years.

The Mesabi miner loaded in superior and is showing a destination of nanticoke Ontario. This is the first time I have seen an interlake ship heading there, usually it’s the uss/Great Lakes fleet that does most of the deliveries there. I think quite a few years ago I saw a photo of the Indiana harbor delivering there as well.
