On board a passenger cruise ship approaching the Rendsburg Transporter Bridge on the Kiel Canal, Germany

On board a passenger cruise ship approaching the Rendsburg Transporter Bridge on the Kiel Canal, Germany. The photographer is looking forward from the bow of the ship towards the west showing the transporter bridge with the older low level swing bridge in the distance. The town of Rendsburg is on the north (right) bank. The ship is almost certainly the Cunard Line's Lancastria (1922) because the negative series 831 to 844 are all of the Kiel Canal and the only ship identified is the Lancastria.
