The Grange and Austin were far better ships than the George or Vic, not only looking better but certainly much better to work on/with, I think the fact that the two newer and 'better' one stops are already out of service speaks for the total botch up in construction/fitting/maintainance that has plaged their unbelievable expensvie life! From someone who has lived/workd on them all.

Hi,
It was changed because Fort George and Fort Grange were deemed to have names to similar and Fort Grange was the one chosen to change.
