Anchor Line's Tyria of 1955 was sold to Nigerian National Lines in 1959 and renamed King Jaja. Seen here in King George Dock Hull in May 1966.

No7 Quay when it still had cranes, also had rail access and used for a lot of bulk cargo.

Thanks for this set Dennis, pre-dates my working life in Hull by about 2 years but lots of familiar vessels and scenes.
