"With reference to the City of Durban, there have been 3 ships in the Ellerman group named City of Durban, the one you have a photograph of [above] is City of Durban(II), one of a class of 4 ships, the others being Cities of Port Elizabeth, Exeter & York. The details of CoD(II) are that she was launched in 1953, sailing on her maiden voyage London - Beira service in May 1954. In 1971 she was sold along with her sisters to M. A. Karageorgis, Mundail Armadora S.A., Panama, when she was renamed Mediterranean Dolphin. She was to have undergone conversion to a passenger ferry as were the Exeter and York. Durban & Port Elizabeth however remained laid up in Greece until sold for breaking, CoD arrived at Kaohsiung to be broken up on 30 Mar 1974.(ref Duncan Hawes).'
