Re: [TR] On This Day in History

[John Macartney <flywheelcoventry1@yahoo.co.uk>]

The date(s) would have depended on:
 
The port of discharge - New York,
Baltimore, Jacksonville, Houston, San Francisco or Portland
The draw-down date
on the Letter of Credit and whether that L/C had been extended or not, and
The
shipping line / vessel availability and the date when space was booked.
 
By
no means an exact science with many variables - and ultimately a potential
victim of industrial relations on all fronts. I well recall cars stuck in the
UK for anything up to two years after build date because the L/C had expired,
then there were strikes on both sides of the pond and frozen destination
ports.
