AUGUSTA: M.A. Flint, West Germany, 328gt, new engine 1956. Wrecked 2-1970.
This is something of a mystery coaster as the Registers did not have any record of where or when she was built.
Looking at her I also imagine she may have had previous names.
Quite possibly the engine fitted in 1956 was the first time she had propulsion.
I don't suppose, after all this time, anyone will know her actual antecedents?
River Tyne - 30 August 1965.
