    Greatly enjoying this ... too bad I missed it when it came out. Being my name is "Fulton," I'm naturally interested in STEAMBOATS. Also I'm a fan of Mark Twain and other Mississippi River lore!

    I was lucky to go on this boat as a kid in Stillwater Minnesota back in the late 1970's

    Thank you for posting this, especially the history description. The Delta King is a floating hotel on the old Sacramento waterfront, at the terminus of the 1st transcontinental railroad.

    I really do hope they can get the Queen back up on the River, my family and I would love to take a ride on her one of these days. If the world would settle down for two seconds and let us back out of our homes. 🤷‍♀️

      I would also really like to take a ride on the SS Delta Queen I just found a an extended play 45 up that says SS Delta Queen Green line steamers Cincinnati 2 on the label (it's a 45 record with two songs on each side that plays at 45 RPM) it's so cool find a piece of history and that's part of the reason I'm a record collector I found the most interesting stuff like an hour and a half to two hours from where the original boat would travel and it's from 1957; I found it in antique store in Jeffersonville Kentucky (I paid a dollar a piece piece for the SS Delta Queen 45 record and five other 45 discs)

    The Delta Queen will be returning to the rivers in 2020 after a forced retirement for over a decade.
