Locks on the upper Mississippi are generally 600 feet long, which isn't quite long enough to accommodate a tow with four 295-foot long barges plus the 130-foot towboat in one lockage. Thus, four loaded tank barges are already below the lock, while the towboat - Magnolia's Miss Kathy - enters the lock chamber light boat, followed by the Riverview assist tug Mrs. P.
