Current vs Historic Ferries edit

There are a number of ferries listed under "Current Ferries" that are Historic! They should be moved into the Willamette section -- At least these two: the Spokane Street Ferry (Caples), and the Stark Street Ferry. Johnedwardmiller (talk) 22:35, 3 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Johnedwardmiller The header for Portland was clobbered in the edit that added the image of the Stark Street Ferry. I've removed the reference that was unneeded and caused the issue, so everything should be back in order. —C.Fred (talk) 23:12, 13 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
