    The Heavy Cruiser looks like either HMAS Canberra or HMAS Australia.
  • Andy Brill said:
    The Kalang and Koondooloo were made obsolete as car ferries, following the opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, and eventually converted to Harbour Showboats, immediately popular with the public , Kalang later renamed the 'Sydney Queen'. For their chequered history and sad demise, see: www.ferriesofsydney.com/kalang.html

Sinking of HMAS TORRENS I

  • Horatio J. Kookaburra said:
    It was November 24, 1930 and the ship in the background is HMAS Canberra, which will sink Torrens as target practice [i.e., she is not being scuttled].
  • Luke Reynolds said:
    I am looking for shots fo the HMAS Sydney (and other old naval vessels) after being shown this shot... My great grandfather is onboard, I am amazed at the size of ship but also the quality of photography back then!
