the Aramoana underway


The Aramoana was New Zealand's first rail roll-on roll-off ferry introduced in 1962.  This postcard of the time was among the illustrations considered for, but not used in the book Strait Crossing: the ferries of Cook Strait through time by Vic Young. For heaps of pictures and info on this revolutionary ship, and all the other ferries, see the book.
