Since yesterday’s post featured a 2025 Troy with a replica boat, here’s some variety with an actual post card from CSNY archives of Troy as it looked in Fall 1904.

HSL above writes that there’s nothing to write about, but I beg to differ. For example, it’d be great to know what tugboat is moving the two barges in the foreground. Like the tugboat name, the name of the barge I find illegible.

The steamer Whitney is featured in a number of online archives, such as here and here.

Many thanks to Bill Hecht for cleaning up this post card.

For folks following the Seneca Chief/Churchill series, the flotilla will be in Hudson today and Kingston Tuesday and Wednesday. We are seeking correspondents.
