COMMENT THIS PHOTO(2)
You say 'hauling containers of all things'.
In fact, Antwerpen [and her fleet mates Brussel, Helen, DeLoris, Cornelis Verolme, Ellen Hudig and TNT Express] were all built as conbulkers.
Their owner, ABC Containerline, operated a round-the-world service that carried:
containers from Europe to Australia and New Zealand;
containers from Aust / NZ to USA and Europe; and
mineral sands in bulk from Australia to USA.
ABC Containerlines went bankrupt in early 1997.
