The passenger steamer Diesbar is the only paddle steamer here that still runs on coal. It was put into service in 1884. Normally ships have female names and are a she. Diesbar is different. He is the only male ship in the fleet. I like to put myself in the old days and wanted to depict the ship accordingly. So you can see the Diesbar at the turn of the 20th century, in the middle of the last century and today.

I like old ships. I imagine the maintenance cost of Diesbar must be a decent amount too :)
