The Dockyard and Engine Works are situated northward of the Wada-Misaki Lighthouse at the entrance of the Harbour of Kobe, and there is a sheltered basin on the eastern side, formed by a breakwater more than 1,000 feet in length in which No. 1 and No. 2 Floating Docks are securely moored near the breakwater. No. 3 Dock, inside the new breakwater, which has been newly constructed from the Wada point, is nearly parallel with the old breakwater to the Nortli. Vessels under repairs and equipments can be also moored at a quay-wall along the basin.
The workshops are equipped with the latest machine tools and appliances. To facilitate conveyance of materials, and fitting-out or repairing vessels, all parts of the Works are connected by rails, which are also in connection with the Government Railway, Wada Branch line.
MITSUBISHI INTERNAL COMBUSTION
