This steamboat, owned and operated by the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad was built by Thomas Quayle and Sons at Cleveland in 1878. Made of wood, the ship featured reinforcing wooden arches above deck, first introduced in sidewheeler days. Not many stories on the boat online but after a name change to Auburn in 1899 it appears it was converted to a barge in 1911, and abandoned in 1924. Shipbuildinghistory.com
