== Minnetonka ==

The Minnetonka, referenced in this article is indeed at the Lake Superior Museum of Transportation, but it is NOT "maintained in operable condition" it is a display and hasn't moved under its own power since the early 20th century.

Improper name of company

The H K Porter Inc is a Boston manufacture of bolt cutters and other tools. This wiki entry titled “H K Porter, Inc is correct for Henry Knox Porter of Everett, MA. This entry should be titled H K Porter & Co, HK Porter Co, or H K Porter Co., Inc, the succession of company names, of Pittsburg, PA. The owner of H K Porter Co was Henry Kirke Porter. Oddly the Boston Porter was born and died 6 years after the Porter of Pittsburg. 208.100.136.236 (talk) 02:45, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
