The Queens of British Columbia by Peter Favell

[Dane]

you can find them pretty easily at Train Shows in Vancouver, of all places.

I've got the Ships of BC, the Spirit Launch book, the Queens of British Columbia, Both versions of the Ferries of British Columbia, and a 2003 Vessel Report. Exciting.

i dont know if this counts, but i have the ferry tails book, Chicken soup for the ferry riders soul, and a bunch of old tug books. i have film footage of the mission bridge being completed, and of the klatawa in 1993.

A poem from ferry tales. Written on the Inside of a Womans Stall on the Issaquah:

As you have time to sit and think;
Pray to god that the issy dont sink.

I have a book about the North Vancouver Ferries. It is called "FERRY ACROSS THE HARBOR" by Capt. James Barr.

My Grandfather has a book about Vancouver Drydock and what they built. They built the Queen of Tsawassen, Vancouver, Coquitlam and Surrey. It also says in there that the Queen of Victoria made to North Van for Repairs under her own power after her collision with the russian Freighter in the Active Pass. The damage only took 26 days to repair. I wonder if that's the reason why she deteriorated faster than the other V's.

I am now a God!

There is a copy of The Ships of British Columbia listed on ebay if anyone is interested. The seller has scanned some pics from it. I am going to try to insert one of them here! Hopefully I do it right...
