Historia
26,032 gross tons passenger liner. Originally named RMS Empress of Japan, she served in the Canadian Pacific Railway’s transpacific service from 1930 to 1939, and as a troopship from 1939 to 1948. She was renamed Empress of Scotland in 1942, and resumed Canadian Pacific Railway’s transatlantic service from 1950 to 1957, when she was sold to Hamburg Atlantic. She was destroyed by fire in New York City in 1966 and scrapped.
