Tug boats do pull their cargo... Tow boat push theirs.. Old Tow Boaters never die, the just push HARDER!

cassiesmom-You did a trip on the Delta Queen? I am so jealous! I would love to do a trip on one of those just to see the inside of one of the river cruise boats. Our company just hired a cook from the American Queen the beginning of this year. If you got pictures of your trip, I would LOVE to see them!

Isn't it amazing how small our boats look compared to the barges they push?
