City of Rome
Built by Vickers, Sons & Maxim, Ltd., Barrow-in-Furness, England. Tonnage: 8,415. Dimensions: 560' x 52' (586' o.l.). Single-screw, 16 knots. Compound engines. Four masts and three funnels. Note: Considered by many to be the most beautiful steamship ever built. Passengers: 520 cabin, 810 third class. Ownership was transferred to the Anchor Line in 1882. As a record breaker she proved a failure, but nevertheless ran successfully for many years for the Anchor Line. Triple expansion engines were later installed to replace the original engines. Broken up for scrap by German shipbreakers in 1902. Ann Nolan Duff sailed on this ship on her return voyage to the United States in 1897, having probably visited her mother and other relatives in Scotland.
