Assuming we have the same ship, it has an interesting story... "Ambria was a cargo ship that was built in 1922 by Deutsche Werft, Finkenwerder for German owners. She was sold in 1934 and renamed Gumbinnen. She was sunk by a British destroyer in 1941, raised and repaired." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Ambria

Wonderful... thanks for sharing this image!!! "Locomotive B124 was built for Coras Iompair Éireann (CIE), the Irish State owned transport company by General Motors at their premises at La Grange, Illinois, USA in 1960." Thanks for the link Seuss... wish things were still this booming here in the USA... praying for a better day for both our countries!!!

Seuss. Thanks so much for the great link, now added to the description for this photo. Great to see B124 in "glorious technicolour"!

Oh boy, I love trains! Good to learn about the locos themselves. Any further images of Irish railways are much appreciated!
