The 'Empress of England' Leaving Liverpool c1958
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I watched this ship as a child at the pier head, many years later I sailed on her on a cruise around the med about 2000/2001. She had been renamed the 'Topaz', it was either the 'Empress Of England' or her sister ship the 'Empress of Scotland'. She was sold on about 5 or 6 years ago and if my information is correct she is to this day operating as an eductional ship somewhere in Japan. A great personal and historic memory.
