專家說明

The Hull and full sister York -- 1132 gross tons, were built in 1907 by the Caledon Shipbuilding & Engineering Co. at Dundee. They were the first ships built for the newly formed Wilson's & North Eastern Railway Co. established in 1906 to provide improved passenger and freight services between Hull, Hamburg, Antwerp, Ghent and Dunkirk. She had capacity for 34 First Class and 120 Steerage passengers who were accomodated in the after upper 'tween deck. Interned during the Great War in 1914 at Hamburg, her crew were allowed to return home in 1916. The ship was returned to her owner in 1919. In 1937 both the Hull and the York were sold to Algerian owners and survived the Second World War, remaining in service until both ships were scrapped in 1954.
