On Oct. 31, the rusty scow that remained for 101 years atop Niagara Falls, some 2000 feet from Horseshoe Falls, was unmoored and traveled about 150 yards after heavy storms blew through the area.

During a nightly storm, last Thursday, the barge was lifted from its resting place and pushed downstream.
