Original bell from the 1898 built vessel SS Hebrides -Photo Janice Dugas

In the  previous post we explored  Mailboxes photography collection.  Yet, another communicative topic for a photographic collection is ship bells.

I had the opportunity to take this picture while boarding the third and current Caledonian McBrayne ferry SS Hebrides from Uig Bay to Tarbert in the Scottish Western Isles.

It’s the original bell from the first 1898 built vessel SS Hebrides!

Can you imagine how hard it was to resist the temptation of tapping the bell ?

If anyone is aware of a soundtrack taped from it, kindly share the information by leaving a comment.

It will be greatly appreciated. 🙂

Talk soon,
