So Vernon,that very good same site SIMPLON PC lists,on page ,7 the Dover & Folkestone to Calais route vessels operated by British Railways.Check out descriptions and photos of each vessel.
(NB to find that page Go: Ferry Galleries> British Railways > Railway Company Pages>British Railways/Sealink Page 7.)
I'll just list them here,with the years in service,and they cover your required timeline of 1958-62.

Cheers !
