Coal loaded by crane onto Rhine barges, 1937

Beside a line of open railway wagons, a worker steadies a steel box heaped with coal as the hook of a gantry crane takes it up; the box swings high over the quay and out above the wide, glittering Rhine, where the open holds of barges lie waiting, and factory chimneys line the far bank. The quay lies at Cologne. Coal from the Ruhr moved up the Rhine by barge in millions of tons a year, the river's heaviest traffic.
