EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the majesty of the Allan Line Royal Mail triple screw steamer, named both "Victorian" and "Virginian." Weighing in at an impressive 12,000 tons, this vessel was a marvel of oceanic transportation during the late Victorian era. The Allan Line, a renowned shipping company based in Scotland, owned this magnificent steamer. Its triple screw propellers, a cutting-edge engineering innovation at the time, ensured unparalleled speed and efficiency. The "Victorian" and "Virginian" were part of the Clydebuilt fleet, built in the shipyards of Glasgow, Scotland. Their elegant design, with tall, slender funnels and ornate decorative details, embodied the grandeur and sophistication of the Victorian age. The ships were known for their luxurious accommodations, making them popular choices for affluent passengers seeking a comfortable and stylish journey across the Atlantic. In 1917, the Allan Line was acquired by Canadian Pacific Steamships, marking the beginning of a new chapter in its history. Despite the change in ownership, the "Victorian" and "Virginian" continued to serve their purpose, carrying passengers and cargo between Europe and North America. This photograph is a testament to the rich maritime history of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, showcasing the beauty and engineering prowess of the Allan Line Royal Mail triple screw steamers, the "Victorian" and "Virginian.
