The Duke of Lancaster – Wales, UK

The TSS Duke of Lancaster is a ship in Wales that was actually one of the last passenger-only ships built for British Railways. Construction finished in 1956 and it replaced an existing ship with the same name.

She originally acted as a route to connect Wales to Belfast, Northern Ireland, but quickly lost out to competition from ferries. For a while, she was transformed into a ‘Fun Ship’ but was slapped with 10 Safety Enforcement notices. With no way to pay for the fines, the ship was left alone and rests on the coast today.
