From battleships to container ships - Scapa flow
There are plans to turn the natural deep water anchorage of Scapa Flow off the
Scottish Orkney islands into the major stop off point for container ships
that have just crossed the Atlantic ocean from North America.
Its a great idea, only a pity there is NO FAST RAIL SERVICE from Northern Scotland to the Channel tunnel.....
