ther are plenty of others. the burma road was the working alleyway for the catering staff on some liners. it went from a couple of decks below the bridge to the laundry which was at the stern.
this was all on one level to allow the carrying of laundry, both dirty and clean, beer, empty and full.it was a very busy place at six am. on UCL it was also used to store empty barrels and crates.
the real madhouse at mealtimes was the kitchen and pantry plus of course the platehouse. alf

any more john and vernon.
