WIP (Almost Finished) - Rose Castle Ore Carrier

I'm not sure if she was a full-time ore carrier or not. I think so though. It's interesting to note that when she was sunk at anchor, another ore carrier was sunk too - a converted oil tanker, PLM 27. She still had the tanker silhouette too. I'm not going to make something like that though, as a ship of that type would be rare.

The same year, two other ore carriers were sunk at the same anchorage - the Saganaga and Lord Strathcona (the Sag. was British and the LC was Canadian). The four wrecks are still there now in water so shallow they can be viewed from the surface.
