It proves that the yards were very much up to date with equipment and skills at the time. A unique picture this and one I've not seen before. It reminds me of the photo series of Doxford Engines before closure. If you'd like I could link directly to here??

Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums Good stuff! OK now I do not own these images nor claim the rights to them. They were linked onto a ships enthusiasts website and took the world by storm when folk saw them. They show British engineering at its best. They're also taken before health and safety became a thing! Enjoy :) www.shipsnostalgia.com/guides/William_Doxford_and_Sons
