What kind of freight do all these ships haul?

mwoods222 Loc: Newburg N.Y,

These are not ships their tugboats or push boats and they haul oil,gas,ethanol,heating oil, traprock, cement. Crushed cars you name it cranes, construction material and on and on and on. its whatever is needed to be moved
These two will be offloading to tank farms along the Hudson River for transfer to tractor trailers and delivered to gas stations
Hope that clears it up a little

Boy, right spot at the right time!
Nice captures!
I especially like the heat coming out the stacks in that last shot. Those engines were working.

So these tugs "nest" into the back of the barges they are pushing/piloting?

Thanks for sharing! :-D

Not right place right time. I track the river traffic on a app called marine traffic.com check it out it tracks every ship in the world :thumbup:
