New Steam Line Bridges Bridgeport and Port Jefferson
The Marine Operating company will launch a second steam line between Bridgeport and Port Jefferson with the Norland making its first trip on September 1 from the Stratford Avenue bridge. The project includes a renovated floating pier, deep harbor work, and new bridge dolphin connections. Captain Wright, long noted in Bridgeport circles, will command the Norland which seats 1004 passengers and 40 automobiles. The schedule lists departures at 9:00 am and 4:15 pm from Bridgeport, with two-hour return trips, aiming to boost Long Island automobile tourism.
