Title: SS Robin
Post by: doorframe on November 05, 2010, 03:36:39 pm
Hi All.

Every now and then we get something a little more intresting here at Tilbury dock. The SS Robin is ouside the warehouse on a floating museum. According to the web she is the worlds oldest complete steamship. I grabbed these pics before my shift today as they finally cleared the containers from in front of her. Shame the weather is sooooo gloomy! She's been here for a while but I've been doing mainly nights so too dark for pics. Lot's of fascinating info about her restoration on the web :-)

Hope you like this...

Roy
