A starboard side view, taken from well abaft the beam, of a Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cargo liner of the Strathmay class (1970) in the Seaforth Container Terminal at Liverpool. The ship is berthed starboard side to the quay and is one of Strathmay (1970), Strathmeigle (1971) or Strathmore (1971). The photographer is well back on the quayside looking towards the ship from behind stacks of containers. Most of the containers are 20 Feet CAST but one is an ACL 40 feet soft top unit. It is late evening and the floodlights are on. Transparencies numbers P64605CT to P64670CT were taken on the same day.
