PS Ruby and Marion cruise under the table lift bridge, Wentworth, NSW

On the 5th November 2017, historic Murray River paddle steamers, PS Ruby (Based at Wentworth, NSW) and visiting PS Marion (Based at Mannum, SA), travel under the table lift bridge out of Wentworth, NSW for a pleasant evening cruise up the Darling River.
Both vessels were celebrating their respective birthdays, PS Marion now 120 years old and PS Ruby 110 years old, and this cruise coincided with a weekend long event involving the two paddle steamers. PS Marion spent 13 days travelling upstream of the Murray River from its home port of Mannum, SA, to visit PS Ruby in Wentworth.
This is was the first time in as many years that both paddle steamers have traversed underneath the Wentworth table lift bridge to cruise up the Darling River.

I was on Marion, but was standing at the port paddlebox to get a view past our bow to Ruby as we passed under the bridge.
