LAIDAURE ex OXELOSUND

Who remembers the veteran LAIDAURE of Grangesberg-Oxelosund in the ore trade up to 1962?
Here she is under her original name OXELOSUND, photo by Walter Frost, City of Vancouver Archives.

My sighting of her is undated so probably before April 1960 when I logged anything that showed in the Ian Allan books! Her appearance changed I think after post-war rebuild (she had been sunk at Narvik in 1940).
