SS Stord I passenger steamer moored at dock no. 46 in Bergen harbour, Norway

Has had a bit of an unfortunate life but still around. Once became a motorship with 2 Paxman engines. Gutted by fire etc etc.

Funnily enough, she now has a 1942 3-exp steam engine from Cammell Lairds Birkenhead. Said to have come from a '42 built British ship.
