TSS Hibernia was a twin screw steamer passenger vessel operated by the London and North Western Railway from 1920 to 1923, and the London, Midland and Scottish Railway from 1923 to 1948.[1]
History
She was built by William Denny and Brothers of Dumbarton and launched in 1920.
In 1948 she was renamed TSS Hibernia II in preparation for a new vessel of the same name, the MV Hibernia (1949). Only a few months later she was scrapped by the British Transport Commission.
