Memphis Queen stern wheeler passes through railroad bridge, 1955

Published in the Stuart News (1 Sep 1955) with caption: "A Memory Of The Old South Squeezes Through Rail Draw. The 87-ft. Memphis Queen is shown as she eased through the railroad bridge draw here Friday morning en route to a brief stay at Gulf Marine Service's dock. Reminiscent of the old South, the stern-wheeler is reputed to have been built in 1840, rebuilt in '28 and will be remodeled in Miami this winter."
