			Hi Cliff 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Thank you for the photos much appreciated the rear of the tank appears to be flat, where as those built in Britain had a convex rear end. I take it that these were a bulk tanker and therefore not meant to pump themselves and were either gravity discharged or pumped out. Regards Matt  |
