Lockage M/V
Margaret Dawson and
Henry C. Ogram - They are leaving old Lock 29. This is unique since it is showing the "needles" used in the dams during low-water period. When the boats were operating together, the
Margaret Dawson was controlled from the pilot house of the
Henry C. Ogram. Prior to Ashland's acquisition, they were operated on the Missouri River.

Lockage Huge 20-or-more barge tows, (some longer than the world's largest ocean liner, the Queen Elizabeth) similar to that above easily pass as a single unit through the 1200-foot locks of the Ohio's new dams. This operation requires a half-hour or less - a minimum saving of one hour per lockage over the time required to pass through the older 600-foot lock chambers.

Lockage Here a 21-barge tow of miscellaneous cargo is in the process of locking through a 600-foot chamber of an existing lock. In order to transit the lock, the tow has been broken into two sections and it will require approximately 1 1/2 hours to make the passage. Another tow waits downstream to lock. The modernization program aims to eliminate or minimize this type of inconvenience.
