This is The Humber ferry PS Lincoln Castle of 1940. Served on the Hull - New Holland route until c1978 for British Railways and their successors. The last paddle steamer in regular service in the British Isles and coal fired until the end. Subsequently preserved in Grimsby as a pub, she was regrettably broken up a few years ago. Her former consorts on the run, Wingfield Castle and Tattershall Castle of 1934 are still in existence,at Hartlepool and on the Thames respectively. |

The paddle steamer mentioned as a pub in Hull below was actually on the river front near to the Humber Bridge at Hessle. From there she came back to Grimsby were she found herself stranded on the wrong side of a new road bridge over the former dock entrance. The only option was dismantling to be moved out and so she was then scrapped. |
