We have just returned from a trip to the museum to attend the bi-annual tug gathering. Some 16 tugs attended and given the low number of original tugs around this was quite a creditable score. It was good to renew the acquaintance of some tugmen I knew from my Alton days as well as meeting new faces in my new world of "little" boats. The top photo shows Sandbach in the museum arm and the lower photo is at the top of the Wolverhamton 21.
Hi George,
ReplyDeleteThere are some good photos of the tug gathering (including a few good shots of Sandbach) on Matt Parrotts website, www.workingboats.org.uk.
Cheers, Brian
