Description | Oiling and Coaling on land |
Details |
Light labour and hard labour: oiling and coaling on land. The new method and the old- a contrast. The top image shows a torpedo boat taking in oil fuel through a hose linking her with a tank in the wharf. Below shows a cruiser coaling from the coal depot at Portsmouth, a much dirtier and more laborious task.
