Previously the docks of Liverpool extending have been known as one of the biggest and busiest in the world, with docks extending for more than 7 miles on either side of the river Mersey, by 2007 it could lay claim to be the UK’s 7th largest by tonnage, but with more than 30 million tonnes of cargo recorded we still see a good deal of traffic.
This guy was snapped coming back in to the mouth of the Mersey, I didn’t get more details but there are web sites that you can track ships and see their status live, pretty good for planning when to go to the beach to catch the next visit of the QM2.
Bit geeky, but if you fancy geeking out, you can click on the ships and track them, do searches and other fun stuff..
