Graham waits on the loading ramp at the wheel of UVJ 129J on New Holland Pier where he will soon join MV Farringford from for the 16.50 sailing to Hull Corporation Pier. Notice that the full lineup of vehicles in this scene are all British with a Mk. 1 Vauxhall Cavalier GLS (even though it was under the control of GM Europe), a very rare Series II Daimler Sovereign that appears to be in two-door form, a Mk. 1 Ford Escort, an Allegro Super and our own Austin 1100 nearest the camera. The huge enamel hanging above the loading ramp is also of interest, I wonder where that ended up a week later when the ferry operations ceased and the pier closed?
