A Leyland Sherpa minibus, that looks well loaded with passengers,

drives on to the MV Farringford at New Holland Pier ready to make the crossing to Hull Corporation Pier. The crew are in discussions as to how to best deal with the abnormally long load on the ferry deck so as not to block out other drivers. Notice the 'for hire' notice painted in the side and the rear of the trailer. This was in the days before galvanised lightweight modern trailers were available to customers with this one probably based on a former caravan chassis as was the case at the time.
