The Thistlegorm must had 5 holds with hatches as big as 7m by 10m probably.

Also 2 derricks with a unknown capacity the Stanier F8 locomotive should have been lifted on the ship by other cranes because the weight was 73.3Te way to much for the derricks.

We think the locomotive where located at Hatch no.4 because of the current location they are now

The lower hold (lowest) has a lot of trucks loaded the exact position we are still trying to locate where they are and which type we know there are a lot of Bedford OX type trucks there

On the second deck or just below the hatches you will find a lot of trucks we are trying to figure out how it looks on the bow of the ship we have more trucks there than we could have so there is some thinking to do.
