SS Bury was a passenger and cargo vessel built for Britain's Great Central Railway in 1911.^[1]

History

The ship was built by Earle's Shipbuilding of Hull and launched in 1911. She was one of an order for four ships, the others being {{SS|Dewsbury|1910|2}}, {{SS|Blackburn|1910|2}} and {{SS|Accrington|1910|2}}.

In 1914 the ship was in Hamburg at the outbreak of the First World War and the crew were taken prisoner of war and detained until the end of hostilities. The stewardesses were released early in 1914 after representation of the Railway Company through the American Consul in Hamburg.^[2]

1923 she transferred to the London and North Eastern Railway and then in 1935 to Associated Humber Lines. On 23 July 1936 she was in collision with the German steamer Virgilia in the River Elbe. The Virgilia sank and the crew of the Bury rescued the German crew.^[3]

On 6 May 1942, the Bury left Liverpool as part of Convoy ON 92 which was attacked by Wolfpack Hecht on 11 May 1942. She served as convoy rescue ship

In, and collected survivors from 5 different ships in the Convoy. She was carrying an HF/DF unit at that time, but provided inadequate readings to the Escorts Gleaves and Ingham.

The ship was sent for scrapping in June 1958.
