Tugboat DEARBORN

In 1932, Henry Ford took delivery of the modern diesel-electric tugboat "Dearborn" from the Great Lakes Engineering Works. Dearborn mostly worked the big ore and cargo ships on the Rouge River, bringing them to Henry's Rouge plant. Dearborn worked at Ford until 1947, going off to a number of other careers, and was finally abandoned in 1994.
Find here: 3D CAD file (STEP, NOT suitable for printing!); 2D drawings in 1:32 scale, reference materials. The CAD model is developed from original GLEW drawings so is accurate in form. But many details are approximate as they aren't shown well in the drawings.
2D drawings: Use the full size PDFs, not the thumbnail images!
