The old Rome Ferry where it has been residing since 1992.
This picture shows just how big the actual ferry was, when it was in working order.
This photo from the 1950's shows the ferry transporting a car, two pickup trucks, and passengers from one side of the Cumberland River to the other.
Another photo of the ferry, and how it looks today.
Ferry travel is mostly a thing of the past. But, it's very important that we know how transportation operated back then.
