brunelrussell Posted October 11, 2022 #1 Posted October 11, 2022 I just came across a previously unknown (by me) direct stern photo of the Great Eastern at Milford Haven shortly before her breaking up. It was on the website for the National Museum of Wales and they let you copy it. They also have some landscape shots featuring the ship but not useful to the modeller. I can finally figure out how far apart the stern hawseholes are! thibaultron, mtaylor and Canute 3 Quote
Louie da fly Posted October 12, 2022 #2 Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) I just came across one myself, on Facebook, but from the bow - along with the usual rubbish about the "dead riveter between the hulls", which I'm pleased to say was dismissed by several posters.
