matthew Matthew, I've posted a photo of Matheran (in "Cargo vessels" in the Gallery) which I took when I was on her in 1962. Salaams Phil Roe(Hippy)

There is a small book by Duncan Haws entitled Thos & Jno Brocklebank in his Merchant Fleets series which gives you all the details you require. The ISBNO
946378 29 0 will help you identify.
Good luck,
Tony.

cheers Mathew, Get in touch with a company called Skyfoto's in, I think, Ramsgate. They'll be able to supply photo's of all the ships you mention.

Phil, you are showing your age again. What used to be Skyfotos in our day is now Fotoflite. I am pretty sure it is same company with just a name change. They are based at Ashford in Kent and have a very good website.
