The LAST Surviving Steam-Powered Mersey Tug. The Daniel Adamson. Ep. 157.
We join the crew working the last surviving steam-powered Mersey tug, the Daniel Adamson, more affectionately known as the Steamship Danny (previously known as the Ralph Brocklebank) as she returns along the Manchester Ship Canal from Liverpool, back to her home mooring at Sutton Weaver on the Weaver Navigation.
Colin explores the 118 year-old ship, inside and out, showing you how The Danny operates from the furnaces to the twin-engine, and the wheelhouse on the bridge. Don’t miss this fascinating insight into a piece of living maritime history.
