Yes, it is big, the photo's don't really give an impression of its true size. But each of those 40 foot containers on deck is what ONE hgv carries. The crew use bicycles to go along the passageways to get from one end of the ship to the other, especially as the engine room is seperate from the accommodation block.

The main engine is an impressive lump of metal.

I love these old trackways. We cycled a few in South Wales a couple of years ago and they had a wonderful atmosphere.

My guess is it's not a gate as we understand them but and an entry/ exit barrier...corresponding post would have 5 holes cut right through and poles slid through that sat in the holes in the post pictured.

Nearly right.
The opposite post has upside down 'L' shaped holes.
Each bar is slotted into the round hole and the other end into the end of the 'L' , moved across and dropped down to make more stock-proof.
Open the gate? Remove the bars - a twenty second job.
Break a bar? Go cut another one.
Will try to get a pic of an 'L' shaper.

If this involves skiing, do not post any photo's up!

Pictures of mountains are allowed, especially ones like this
