II. SOME ERRATA to enter
Most issues of Transfer contain a section for errata and for further information on topics covered previously. Also noted are these, that were not in errata sections:
2417: NYC No. 30 not scrapped in 1961 but 1969 (see 2603)
3103: Wrong
engraving was printed here, that of tug
3117:
DL&W tug
3204: First line of article should refer to Transfer No. 31, not 32.
3513: Spiro review was in RMC Oct. 1999 issue (3602)
3521: The Pennsy issue with the article was Nov. 1, 1966, not 1996 (3602)
3622: Review of "Tugs Everlasting" article ‑ that article did give photo credits, but they were printed in a strange place, lengthwise along the "gutter" of a page.
3810: 6th item under Letters should be headed "Plans of Wooden Barges" not Carfloats
4204 etc.: see many corrections to table of Transfer Bridges on p.4328
4303 (summary of Brooklyn's Waterfront Railroads): under No.1, the connection with the Bay Ridge Branch has been used a great deal since NY Cross Harbor RR took over the operation; under No. 3, the Atlantic Ave. float bridge is now gone, due to new construction; under No. 6, remove phrase "almost all built between 1905 and 1920"; under no. 10, the sugar refiner was Havemeyer, not Havermeyer.

Part 1 "Seatrains: The First Container Ships" (by Phil Sims), 903‑910. Fine summary of Seatrain history, including wartime service, with Sims' take on original purpose and its economics.

Part 2 just called "Seatrain ‑‑ Part 2", 1108‑1111; with more detailed
information on the fleet. (Note: corrections on the use of the nautical
term "tonnage" in this article can be found in No. 14, p. 7).
