The R.M.S. Ormonde [1917 - 1952] was built by the Orient Steam Navigation Company Ltd. and immediately requisitioned as a troop ship for W.W.I. In 1919 she was refitted as she was originally intended as a 'fine passenger liner'. She was converted from coal fired to the more economical oil fuel in April 1923. She served in W.W.II, and later was chartered by the British Ministry of Transport to operate government-supported emigrant voyages to Australia .
