TSS Anglesey was a steam turbine cargo vessel operated by the London and North Western Railway from 1888 to 1910.

History

She was built by Harland & Wolff for the London and North Western Railway in 1888 and put on the Holyhead – Dublin route. She was one of a trio of ships built over four years for this route, all of a similar size. The other ships were missing name and missing name. On 25 November 1888, a fire broke out whilst she was on a voyage from Dublin to Holyhead. Cargo to the value of £2,000 was destroyed.[1]

She was disposed of in 1910.
