Mitsui O.S.K Line vessel berthed in Pyrmont, 1890-1943

from Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons

Peter Cundall said:
The ship is Yahiko Maru built 1926 5747 grt and owned by Itaya Shosen but on long term charter to Mitsui. The ship was designed for heavy lifting and was torpedoed and sunk in 1944. The ship was requisitioned by the IJA in 1938 and so the photo was taken in the 1926=38 period.

What happened to the Stockrington?
It apparently disappeared - see 1927 Trove article : trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16381668

but - not quite.
It reappeared after a 3-day storm: trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16386813

It lived to be grounded another day. See 1956 photo of the 'Pelaw Main' and 'Stockrington', both J & A Brown colliers, from Uni of Newcastle Cultural Collections:

Andy Brill Interesting... There is a 1947 article saying it (or another STOCKRINGTON?) has been sold to a Chinese owner. I will have to do some more digging!
Andy Brill said:
I wonder whether the sale proceeded, as the ship in the 1956 photo appears to be identical to the ship in your photo above. Either way, The Flotilla Australia register does not list a 'Stockrington', under J & A Brown ships. J & A Brown operated the Stockrington Colliery at Newcastle.

grace!
Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
Andy Brill More records, a little more confusing. The Miramar Ship Index lists STOCKRINGTON as sold by J&A Brown to a new owner in 1922 with the name changed to MAINDY COTTAGE. In 1948 it is listed as MOW LIN and belonging to Hung Ziang Shing, & that is the last entry... mysterious!
