Description:
I see another of Gerolf/s excellent Elbe shots this time of the former ORAMA.
She was completed in 1964 by Lithgow/s at Port Glasgow for P&O/s Trident Tankers and sported the old P&O livery of stone upperworks and black hull.
I took this in 1971 at Greenock when she came back in for drydocking.
She became IOANNIS ANGELICOUSSIS in 1974 and in August 1979 she suffered an explosion when loading at Cabinda. She was towed out to sea and sank following more explosions, a sorry end.
Her sister was ORISSA.
