Hi Paul Thanks, your helpful reply has given me at the least some names to follow up. Peter 

Dear Peter, as an ex-BISN Co Ltd deck officer, I was interested to see your enquiry about troop ships.  Although I never sailed on them as troop ships, I did sail on Nevasa, Devonia (ex-Devonshire) and Dunera when they were changed to educational cruise ships.  I passed your note to the un-official BI archivist and he has responded with:  In the link to Queen's Royal Surreys, Nevasa (1913) is in fact Neuralia, taken on her first "educational" cruise in July 1932 whilst passing under the Keil Canal bridge, then doctored in the dark room. Nevasa (1957) is a trials photo. I guess this doesn't advance your quest t all, but it may be of some background interest. regards Lyndon Johnson ________________________________ From: P NICHOLL via <mariners@rootsweb.com> To: "MARINERS@rootsweb.com" <MARINERS@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, 18 April 2015, 13:28 Subject: [MAR] .
