PS Suffolk was a passenger vessel built for the Great Eastern Railway in 1900.^[1]

History

The ship was built by Earle's Shipbuilding in Hull for the Great Eastern Railway and launched on 25 April 1900.^[2] She was launched by Miss Nellie Howard, daughter of Captain D. Howard, the Marine Superintendent of the Great Eastern Railway Company. She was built of steel and equipped with a double-ended hull, with two rudders adapted for steaming with equal facility astern or ahead. Unusually she was launched with machinery on board complete, and with steam up, and she made a short run on the River Humber, prior to being berthed in the Victoria Dock

She was used on local services and coastal excursions.^[3]

In 1923 she passed into the ownership of the London and North Eastern Railway and they scrapped her in 1931.
