    Default RMS Stirling Castle

    One for Vernon, just a lot of old photos of the old girl, unfortunately its all in Spanish, which apart for ordering beer, i don't speak. Some photos of her as a troop ship. However, she looks so small by todays standards, as far as i can make out from the Spanish, she carried 800 passengers, would that be right ?, she does look a nice sleek ship compared with the uglies today.
