British Strike - coal ships tied tied up at Cardiff (LOC)

  • Kilted Cowboy said:
    probably covered as news, 1912, 12 week coal strike, causing some passengers to be removed from these smaller ships and moved to other ships, including Titanic
  • Howard Dickins said:
    A good bit of history.

    A giant collier, built in 1916, sunk by an Austro-Hungarian submarine in 1914. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Milazzo

    Charley Seavey Sunk before it was built?
  • Charley Seavey said:
    Oops. Ahh, I meant 1917. Typo, typo, typo!
  • Darkroom Daze said:
    Fascinating set of this ship. They don't build them like they used to! I had no idea that there were narrow gauge rail tracks on such ships. Looks as if these skips were pulled/pushed by hand.

  • Dave Miller said:
    LOC - This photo and contemporary newspaper accounts indicate that the name of this ship is properly spelt "Milazzo", despite Bain's labeling.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thanks puzzlemaster! It looks like Bain was consistent in their misspelling, s we'll add [i.e. Milazzo] to all the photo titles. -- Helena (LOC)
