Heidelberg Express

Post by planeterotica »

I was walking along the banks of the Medway this morning and it was thick with fog when all of a sudden this large container ship came looming out of the fog just like a ghost ship,it was quite eery, the ship was the Heidelberg Express making it's way into the Thamesport docks at the Isle of Grain in Kent, i had my kodak sport in my pocket and managed to shoot a glimpse of it before she dissapeared into the fog again..

Impressive beast, as you said quite eery.

Always find it hard to look at these container leviathans without recalling the excellent JibJab

I know what you mean Alex L these large ships come in fully laden and leave virtually empty, imports are becoming more expensive because of the low ? but the UK cant export much to take advantage of the falling ? because we dont have a manufacturing industry anymore !sad!
