This week we go back 20 years: 2001
Place: Travemünde, at a moment when TT Line started to operate the new NILS HOLGERSSON and PETER PAN, still in service.
TRANSFINLANDIA (built 1981)
The first ship is TRANSFINLANDIA. She was eventually scrapped in 2012.
TRANSEUROPA (built 1995)
Another Finncarriers fleetmate was the sturdy TRANSEUROPA. In 2013 she let the Baltic Sea for a second life in the Meditterranean, as EUROFERRY OLYMPIA. She is still in service between Salerno and Catania.
LÜBECK LINK (built as FINNROSE in 1980)
Last but not least is the ship that would probably never win a beauty contest. LÜBECK LINK is photographed when she was operating for Nordö Link on the Travemünde-Malmö route. In 2017 she was broken up in India.
