A fact from New York Central Tugboat 16 appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 26 February 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that a tugboat used to sit at the bottom of the approach to the Bourne Bridge until it was demolished to make way for a parking lot of a pharmacy?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2013/February. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/New York Central Tugboat 16.

Copyright issue

I used it as a source, but I paraphrased all of it, and the Duplication Detector is only bringing up two hits, which are a matter of prose style. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 05:42, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Two scrappings?

The article now states: that No. 16 served "until its scrapping in 1969. In 1982, it was moved to Bourne, Massachusetts[,] where it remained until it was scrapped in 2006." Later on, it says much the same thing. I find it hard to imagine how one object could be scrapped twice. Was it sold, with the expectation that it would be scrapped, in 1969? Was it partially dismantled the first time, but enough remained for re-use (and later scrapping)? --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 17:03, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Piledhigheranddeeper: I think it was sold for scrapping that year, but was eventually saved until 2006, when it was finally scrapped for good. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 02:06, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
