Interestingly she appears to have had them her cranes re-installed when sold. Apparently they were removed when she was on the timber run from Murmansk, as they limited the amount of timer that could be carried on deck, and got in the way of loading and unloading.

Correction it is Leicesterbrook. Both her and Lincolnbrook did have hydraulic cranes as built, and had them in 1983 when both did the Falkland Islands run, but by 1987, when this photograph was taken had had her cranes removed. Plenty of photographs on other sites to verify this (e.g. Ship nostalgia). I have reverted details back to those of Leicesterbrook.

That's the "Lancasterbrook". "Leicesterbrook" had deck cranes, as per the other photos.
