The Michigan Maritime Museum in South Haven will host the next entry in its lecture series on January 17 with a presentation on the Mackinac Railway Ferries. The museum says the ferries played a role in ice breaking on the Great Lakes historically. With South Haven’s Ice Breaker Festival quickly approaching, the museum says it’s the perfect time to learn about some of the history behind ice breaking with guest speaker Brian Jaeschke and his presentation, “Wood, Steel, and Ice: History of the Straits of Mackinac Railway Ferries.”
