A starboard broadside view of the British India Steam Navigation Company passenger/cargo liner Dwarka (1947) alongside a wharf at Bombay, India. The ship is berthed on the far side of the wharf and a storage building on the wharf is obscuring most of her hull. Her stern is out of the picture. In the foreground, and seen from off her port broadside, is the Bombay Port Trust's Fire Float No. 1 (1945), the former VIC lighter VIC 92. Transparency numbers PCT463 to PCT472 were taken on the same occasion.
