Bow view of 'P.S. Murray' on right, at Milang Jetty, with railway horse 'Nugget' dragging railway trucks to the wharf, 24 June, 1938. 'Ada & Clara' is visible under the paddle case of 'Jupiter'. A researcher suggests that this date is incorrect and is more likely to be 1908 or 1918, as the 'P.S. Jupiter' left Milang for the last time in 1933, the 'Ada & Clara' was sold in 1936, and the 'P.S. Murray' had not been in Milang for around 20 years.
S.W. Pearl steaming beside the P.S. Ruby
Bow view of sternwheeler 'S.W. Pearl' steaming, before the funnel was shortened, with the original P.S. Ruby and barge, near the river bank. According to a researcher, 'this is not the original Ruby. The first Ruby on the river was built in Melbourne in 1853 and Cadell brought her to the Murray to replace the PS Melbourne which was lost. This first Ruby was later rigged to sail to New Zealand and was eventually wrecked there. The Ruby in this photo was built in 1876 for Elliot Randell of Echuca/Moama and is what I call Ruby No. 2. Ruby No. 3 (Little Ruby) was built in 1894 and Ruby No. 4 (still in existence at Wentworth) was built in 1907 to replace Ruby No. 2.'
