In producing a booklet it was possible to include much additional detail and to provide listings for certain manufacturers whose ranges were out of production and whose models would therefore not be listed in dealers’ catalogues. Issue 1 then contained listings for Eagle*, Ensign, Hornby Minic/Rovex*, Airfix*, Casadio*, Triang*, Delphin, Hansa, Star and Wiking. Issue 2 (which appeared in 1996) repeated those asterisked and added full lists for Len Jordan Models, Pedestal, Fleetline and Nelson. With UK collectors in mind, all British models produced by a further eighteen manufacturers were listed in tables, most of which have been retained and updated for this issue. Issue 3 appeared in 1999, followed five years later by Issue 4 which was available on CD only but added a digital photo library. Issue 5 in 2008/09 heralded the pdf download version with many new images. With all issues most entries are reviewed and of course new manufacturers added. It has been decided to retain previously mentioned manufacturers for the record, even if some are long out of production. Model lists for American ships are included for Hansa, Trident Alpha, Navis (capital ships only), Star and Wiking. Although several of these makes are out of production, models can still be found second-hand and in some cases the only source of a particular ship may be a discontinued range. Other American ship models in current/recent production are mentioned with the descriptions of the manufacturer concerned. One of the most difficult tasks is determining what models have and have not been released, and which may have been deleted. Some are catalogued but never produced. To check for current availability the web sites mentioned below are especially useful. The most useful works of reference – model listings - must be Wiedling’s Ship Model Registers (released models by country & era) and the Galerie Maritim ‘Katalog’ (all models by manufacturer) – more on these later. Also of great help as to what is currently available is Wiedling’s ‘Lotse’ (Pilot) catalogue which is a free pdf. Excellent sites for waterlines data include www.collnav.de, www.schiffmini.de and especially www.sammelhafen.com, the latter a feast of listings & illustrations and now, with thanks to Oliver Wichers, home to this publication. Also recommended are www.wiedling.de & www.galerie-maritim.de (mail order shops in Germany). Two UK based websites (both dealers) worth book-marking are www.waterline-ships.co.uk and www.shipmodels.co.uk (the latter the home of ‘Antics’ who took over the popular Saxon Miniships dealership). For a pleasant and informal exchange of information and views the place to ‘visit’ is John Mitchell’s ‘Dockside’ at www.members7.boardhost.com/Dockside. Also you should keep an eye on Iain McGeachy’s interesting site at www.shipmodelsblueyonder.co.uk. CM KR Transvaal Castle (Union Castle Line, 1962) Courtesy of MARINE MODELLING INTERNATIONAL magazine (www.marinemodelmagaine.com) Issue 6 (January 2010) was the first for many years to find its way into print. With new models constantly appearing (and going out of production) it can only be a snapshot at the time of writing so please refer to the monthly MMI-Waterlines column for all the latest news and that extra level of detail re ships and models. A few copies of an Issue 7 were printed in September 2013 and 8 in February 2014; Issue 9 and then 10 were at one point available for free download via Marine Modelling. This new issue adds an illustrated list of 1/1250 British merchantmen by Albatros, CM/CM-KR, Mercator, Navis, Colonia, G, RG and Hansa. More pictures are required and the list will probably never be completed; however you have got to ‘go- to-pdf’ some time. I hope collectors will find it useful. For many of the discontinued ranges the word ‘do’ should still be replaced by ‘did’ and one day this will be completely ‘done’! Meanwhile thank you to readers of previous issues for your feedback and comments; more of the same is always welcome. ([email protected]). Kelvin Holmes Issue 11, 2017 Illustrations: those with blue backgrounds as above are of models in the author’s collection; a few others have been taken from the web and are used with thanks – acknowledgments are given and apologies to anyone inadvertently omitted. Front cover features Oriana (by Skytrex), Canberra (Colonia) & Victoria (Risawoleska 245b). 1 G Homeric (White Star, 1920) Neptun HMS Hermes Albatros Strathnaver (P&O, 1931) Argonaut HMS Queen Elizabeth 2 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AIM AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The aim of the guide is to provide an encyclopaedic reference of contemporary manufacturers and models (1/1200 and 1/1250), with an emphasis on British and, to a lesser extent, American ships. Every attempt has been made to ensure accuracy and completeness but as always comment on any errors or omissions would be more than welcome. Additional information, particularly on the continental manufacturers identified by name only, would be especially helpful. For manufacturers who are especially active with new releases (Argos, Neptun for example) this guide will always be out of date so please refer to the various websites mentioned throughout. I would very much like to acknowledge the assistance provided by Martin Brown in researching and reviewing earlier issues of the guide, and for the entire Triang entry; also to Paul Jacobs for information on the American scene and Keith Tatton for introducing me to A.J. Holladay & Co. Ltd. May I also thank Nigel Robinson for his invaluable input re merchant ships and their owners. It is hoped that existing collectors will find this latest edition useful and potential newcomers will discover the tremendous scope of this absorbing hobby. Firstly a little background to the hobby, starting with the UK. The UK Scene Perhaps the first small constant scale waterline ship models to be commercially manufactured in Great Britain were Dinky’s 1/1800 series, with Treforest Mouldings, under the name TREMO, producing the first 1/1200s, both from the mid to late 1930s.

  • I Am Descending Into the Depths, Something I Have Done So Many Times Before
    I am descending into the depths, something I have done so many times before. As always I am repeating the same actions, with the same attention and coolness; but I also realise that my desire to see the wreck is something more, almost a hunger. The water is so clear that suddenly, on the edge of my vision I think I can see the bottom, but I know that it is too soon, too shallow. I realise that it is not the seabed below as I start to discern two enormous, powerful propellers. One of them is completely wrapped by a trawl net that passes over the rudder and disappears into the depths. I start to see the other propeller and the gigantic hull of the wreck, so big that I mistake it for the bottom. I know for certain that I, and the rest of the team following me down the shot-line will soon be exploring the final resting place of the Szent Istvan. To me the Szent Istvan is more than a wreck; she is a magnet, a piece of history that has drawn a few explorers to her. Her story has come to symbolise the tumultuous events of the last year of the Great War and the lives of the men involved in her story: Admiral Miklos Horthy de Nagybanya, Commander in Chief of the Imperial Royal Austro-Hungarian Navy, and Lieutenant Commander Luigi Rizzo, Commander of the IV squadron of the Royal Italian Navy. The wreck stretches away from me. Directly ahead is one of the propellers, I can't exactly make out its dimensions, it soars over me.

  • The Vietnam War an Australian Perspective
    THE VIETNAM WAR AN AUSTRALIAN PERSPECTIVE [Compiled from records and historical articles by R Freshfield] Introduction What is referred to as the Vietnam War began for the US in the early 1950s when it deployed military advisors to support South Vietnam forces. Australian advisors joined the war in 1962. South Korea, New Zealand, The Philippines, Taiwan and Thailand also sent troops. The war ended for Australian forces on 11 January 1973, in a proclamation by Governor General Sir Paul Hasluck. 12 days before the Paris Peace Accord was signed, although it was another 2 years later in May 1975, that North Vietnam troops overran Saigon, (Now Ho Chi Minh City), and declared victory. But this was only the most recent chapter of an era spanning many decades, indeed centuries, of conflict in the region now known as Vietnam. This story begins during the Second World War when the Japanese invaded Vietnam, then a colony of France. 1. French Indochina – Vietnam Prior to WW2, Vietnam was part of the colony of French Indochina that included Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Vietnam was divided into the 3 governances of Tonkin, Annam, and Cochinchina. (See Map1). In 1940, the Japanese military invaded Vietnam and took control from the Vichy-French government stationing some 30,000 troops securing ports and airfields. Vietnam became one of the main staging areas for Japanese military operations in South East Asia for the next five years. During WW2 a movement for a national liberation of Vietnam from both the French and the Japanese developed in amongst Vietnamese exiles in southern China.

  • An Analysis of the Loss of HMAS SYDNEY
    An analysis of the loss of HMAS SYDNEY By David Kennedy The 6,830-ton modified Leander class cruiser HMAS SYDNEY THE MAIN STORY The sinking of cruiser HMAS SYDNEY by disguised German raider KORMORAN, and the delayed search for all 645 crew who perished 70 years ago, can be attributed directly to the personal control by British wartime leader Winston Churchill of top-secret Enigma intelligence decodes and his individual power. As First Lord of the Admiralty, then Prime Minster, Churchill had been denying top secret intelligence information to commanders at sea, and excluding Australian prime ministers from knowledge of Ultra decodes of German Enigma signals long before SYDNEY II was sunk by KORMORAN, disguised as the Dutch STRAAT MALAKKA, off north-Western Australia on November 19, 1941. Ongoing research also reveals that a wide, hands-on, operation led secretly from London in late 1941, accounted for the ignorance, confusion, slow reactions in Australia and a delayed search for survivors . in stark contrast to Churchill's direct part in the destruction by SYDNEY I of the German cruiser EMDEN 25 years before. Churchill was at the helm of one of his special operations, to sweep from the oceans disguised German raiders, their supply ships, and also blockade runners bound for Germany from Japan, when SYDNEY II was lost only 19 days before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and Southeast Asia. Covering up of a blunder, or a punitive example to the new and distrusted Labor government of John Curtin gone terribly wrong because of a covert German weapon, can explain stern and brief official statements at the time and whitewashes now, with Germany and Japan solidly within Western alliances.

The work was undertaken as part of the contract for Archaeological Services in Relation to the Protection of Wrecks Act (1973) (Figure 1). Wessex Archaeology diving operations took place in September and October 2005. A total of 11 dives were conducted, achieving a total dive time of 680 minutes (Appendix I). Diving investigations concentrated on an assessment of the wreck itself, supported by a photographic and video survey. A measured plan of the remains was produced. Two anomalies close to the site were also investigated, with one proving to be a corroded metal buoy and the other being a metal object of unknown function but not considered to be a part of the vessel. The hull structure was observed to be in and relatively good condition, despite areas of corrosion pitting along the outer casing on the top of the wreck.

  • The Royal Institution of Naval Architects and Lloyd's Register
    The Royal Institution of Naval Architects and Lloyd’s Register Given their common roots in the UK maritime industry, it is not surprising that throughout the 150 years in which the histories of both organisations have overlapped, many members of the Institution have held important positions within Lloyd’s Register. Such connections can be traced back to 1860, when the joint Chief Surveyors, Joseph Horatio Ritchie and James Martin were two of the 18 founding members of the Institution.
