Venus on dock Platform and rails
Tyne Commissioners Quay with MV Venus docked prior to sailing to Norway. Trains came directly from London, and elsewhere, directly onto the dock, behind the long row of buildings in the foreground
The curved part of the railway track is visible.
Thanks to George Dowse for finding this photo. He dates it pre-1938?
This shows the remains of the platform and rails on the North side of the warehouses, where the passengers alighted from the train before boarding MV Venus or her sister ships.
