A port bow view, taken from wide off the bow, of the refrigerated cargo liners Tekoa (1966) and Mataura (1968) alongside the wharf in the Tilbury Dock Extension. Both ships have light green hulls over darker green boot topping and have the Federal logo on the funnel. The Tekoa is fitted with Hallen derricks and the Mataura has deck cranes in addition to her normal derricks. The stem of the cargo liner Alaric (1958) is on the extreme right edge of the image. Transparencies numbers PCT1416 to PCT1424, PCT1502 and PCT1503 were taken on the same occasion.
