In the summer of 1979, Jet Lowe took a series of photographs of these huge machines used to unload ore from ships on Lake Erie. In this photograph, you can see a ship (the George M. Carl) docked to the left of the massive Hulett ore unloaders. Downtown Cleveland is in the distance.

The unloader operator could drop the ore directly into waiting rail cars for immediate shipping, or deposit it in the storage yard to the left.
