    At the risk of incurring your wrath Fred, it was driven onto the ship in 2014, not craned. Plus it was painted L.N.E.R. Blue not BR green. I would suggest it's the first time it went to Canada in, was it 1966 or '67?

    I would imagine the date is the late 60's as this photo came from a 60's collection

    In which case I agree it would the first transfer to Canada; it was the single chimney that I was uncertain of .
