TSS Irene was a steam turbine cargo vessel operated by the London and North Western Railway from 1885 to 1906.[1]
History
She was built by Harland & Wolff for the London and North Western Railway in 1885 and put on the Holyhead – Dublin route. She was one of a trio of ships built over 4 years for this route, all of a similar size. The other ships were the missing name and missing name.
On 12 September 1889, Irene collided with missing name 30 nautical miles (56 km) off Holyhead whilst of a voyage from Holyhead to Dublin. Both vessels were severely damaged. Irene assisted Banshee in to Holyhead.[2] She was disposed of in 1906.
