Old Photograph River Tay Ferry Dundee Scotland


Old photograph of a River Tay ferry at Dundee, Scotland. Until 18 August 1966 a passenger and vehicle ferry service across the River Tay operated between Craigie Pier, Dundee and Tayport, Fife. The service was discontinued upon the opening of the Tay Road Bridge. Three vessels latterly operated the service, the Paddle Steamer Nairn, and the two more modern ferries MV Abercraig and MV Scotscraig, equipped with Voith Schneider Propellers. The ferry service was popularly known in Dundee as " the Fifie ".
