Orient liner RMS ORMONDE at anchor in Sydney Harbour

from Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons

• FredV45 said:

  The ship is the Orient S N Co liner Ormonde, built in 1917 and in service on the Company's England-Australia run until scrapped in 1952. The photo can be approximately dated as late 1931 by the fact that it shows the Sydney Harbour Bridge pylons as incomplete: they reached full height in January 1932.

  FredV45 Thanks Fred! Our records have been updated with this information :)

  I think it might be 26 January 1931, Anniversary Day (now known as Australia Day). R.M.S. 'Ormonde' was the Flagship. Read all about it - SMH 27/01/1931 p.9 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16749101 Illustration - (p.12) - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16748970

  My grandad took the trip from Liverpool to Algiers on this ship in May 1943 as part of draft reinforcements for the 1st Army in Tunisia during World War II.

• covid convict said:

  The Mariposa arrived in Sydney on 25th February, 1932...this was the first time she'd been to Sydney. She was initially berthed at East Circular Quay, No. 2 wharf...and was later moved to West Circular Quay, No.4 wharf...from where she departed late evening on 27th February, 1932.
