I was wondering what the "tug" in your header was referring to. I assume a "mining tug" was used to pull mining cars around. There are hundreds if not thousands of mine shafts and tunnels around California. Do you know what kind of a mine it was?

I assumed it was a tug used at an airport to move airplanes around, or maybe freight stored in a warehouse. Hope we get the correct answer.
