An item described the Bulgarian Danube harbour
Lom by an anonymous sailor in 1948. Lom was a small harbour were mainly
Czechoslovakian Skoda trucks and Hungarian ¼”wire cable were unloaded despite
considered to be war reparations for the Soviet Union. The sailors’ ship
unloaded her cargo alongside pontoon-type docks situated between the railroad
station and a one store administrative building which as the same time
accommodated a guard numbering around 20 men. The cargo was manual unloaded
lacking modern equipment for this purpose. East of the railroad station was a
new winter harbour dug out although the construction of building was not begun.
This winter harbour was to include ship repair facilities.
