m/s Railship I
Having arrived home from my vacation in Burma and Thailand it was time to get back at the grinder and I was called from the job center to urgently get to Turku port to fill in as First Officer on m/s Railship I for one round trip to Luebeck, Germany as the steady person had taken ill.
Railship I was originally built to take train wagons and it still could do that as the rails were still on the deck but nowadays she also took a lot of trailers and other ro-ro cargo. As it was only a round trip I did not have much time to get familiar with the ship, all I can say that she was built in Germany in a very ascetic style. Very well working tool. She was built in 1975 by Rickmers Werft in Bremerhaven, length overall 177m and DWT 8970 with rails 1307m.
She was scrapped in Alang, India by 2001.
