Prince of Wales - Bridge Module Transit


The bridge module constructed at BAE System's Govan Yard in Glasgow started it's journey to Rosyth on the East coast.

Once there it will be added to the hull of the aircraft carrier "Prince of Wales' currently under construction.

The Inverness based tug 'Strathdon' will take the tow through.

She was ably assisted by the Svitzer tug "Ayton Cross' from Govan to Greenock.
