    This feels 'alive' and almost moving. I'm pleased that these images were saved to be shown again. Thanks for posting.

    You're very welcome, Paul. Really glad that you're enjoying the images. It's our pleasure to be able to share these memories of Sunderland's remarkable shipbuilding heritage.

    I'm very much enjoying the shipbuilding images. The unanswered question is why it all disappeared so quickly?
  • Billy Embleton said:
    Prefer the colour of these old images as opposed to modern ones. Yes, it all went very quickly. Ill bet the people watching this launch never imagined it happening in their lifetime.
