Lafarge Cement


I continue to learn that there are a lot of cement facilities around the Great Lakes.

LaFarge Holcim Tug / Barge combination G. L. Ostrander and Integrity offloading cement in Saint Joseph, Michigan this afternoon (11/2/22).

The freighters have to squeeze through a swing bridge to get here, the (CSX+Amtrak)Pere Marquette Bridge.

I recognize Alpena as a freighter designed to carry cement.

Always fun to watch a freighter come through the bridge.

And this satellite image caught a barge at the dock.
