Laplander


One of the old boats at Crick was Laplander, a steam powered ice breaker.  As we walked along the tow path, we could hear the distinctive sound of its whistle.  The chimney is so tall, a crew member has to lower it to get under bridges.

I know Sean and Laplander very well but this is such a good picture it could be used for a caption compitition especially when you take a close look at the expression on the steerers face
