The yard number of 244 is well out of sync with J.L.Thompsons yard numbers at the time. This is because Thistleroy was built at John Crowns yard, alongside Thompsons but Thompson had taken over John Crowns and Crowns ships were accredited to Thompsons

I spent most of my sea time on the B I Cs,Chindwara,Chilka,
Chakla,Chinkoa.As you say,dated but still a clever design.
The freezer rooms were in the tween decks,No 3 hatch and
no deck cargo was carried on this hatch.
Left a nice recreational space for barbecues etc.

Interesting point Allen. I think that there is a generation that exists at the moment that have probably not even seen a vessel like this in real life!.

It is really surprising that in 1960 shipowners ordered a vessel of this design. Bob found the right words : Its like going back to coal burning slow steaming eras. Probably they pulled drawings out of a drawer from well before the 2nd WW.
At the same time scandinavian, german, dutch and italian owners built streamline vessels of outermost pretty lines.
Nevertheless, the pic itself is wonderfull. Harbour scenery of a by gone century...
Thanks for sharing Bob

Interesting shot Bob, nice ship, but not a hit-magnet like a brand new box boat of which there are thousands of similar shots on here and which get over 700 hits !!!

She must have been one of the last-built freighters with the split superstructure, a hark back to the days of coal-fired steamers where coal was loaded through a hatch in the middle of the superstructure. British ship owners and builders really did get stuck in a time warp with this obsolete design.
