Circle 18 on Reader Service Card Schichau Delivers Car/Rail Passenger Ferry 'Robin Hood' The car/rail passenger ferry Ro- bin Hood was recently delivered to Hamburg-based TT-Line GmbH & Co. by Schichau Seebeckwerft of Bremerhaven, West Germany. The vessel immediately joined her sister ship Nils Dacke in serving the line's Lubeck-Travemunde to Trelleborg route. The Nils Dacke has been employed on this route since Octo- ber 1988. According to TT-Line, which with its Swedish partner Swedcar- rier operates the service from Lu- beck, West Germany, to Trelleborg, Sweden, the 24,728-ton Robin Hood and sister vessel Nils Dacke are among the largest vessels of their kind. They are equipped with tracks on the lower deck to handle com- plete cargo trains. The rail facilities can also be used to accommodate truck/trailer units. Like the Nils Dacke, the Robin Hood has an approximate length of 581 feet and a width of 84.5 feet. Both offer three decks intercon- nected by internal ramps, and have accommodations for up to 300 pas- sengers: 280 beds in a total of 121 cabins, all with shower and toilet facilities; video-cinema; conference room; lounge; and self-service res- taurant.
