Shell oil tanker TIGA refuelling a passenger liner, possibly RMS MOLDAVIA or MONGOLIA

from Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons

• Phillip said:

  The passenger liner is either the Moldavia or the Mongolia. It's definitely pre-1930 (Moldavia received a dummy second funnel during this time). There's also a strong chance this photo is pre-1928 because after that time the white stripe along the hull was moved a deck lower. For reference, see p154 of Malcolm Gordon's book 'From Chusan to Sea Princess'. Cheers, Phill

  Phillip Woo hoo! We have met the MOLDAVIA before at Circular Quay in 1931, with the high stripe. Interesting to compare -
