Brothers The "Cecil County" and "Hahatonka" are in the repair yard for some work. The "County" is upon the railway while "Hahatonka" (7,048GT) sits almost high and dry at an adjacent dock. "Hahatonka" was designated hull # 4018 by the USSB and was built by the Bethlehem Steel Co., Sparrows Point, MD. being launched on April 24, 1920. She was later renamed "Gulfport" and somehow managed to stay out of the sights of prize hungry German U-boats while she traversed the south Atlantic to and from ports like Recife, Bahia and Rio during WWII. She was scrapped in 1950.
