The Tyne Tees Steam Shipping Company provided shipping services in the United Kingdom from 1904 to 1943.^[1]

She survived World War II and was transferred to Olsen's service between Oslo and Newcastle until 1951 when she moved to an Antwerp service from Oslo /Kristiansand. Sold to the Burmese Shipping Board in 1952 and renamed Pyidawtha. She operated coastal passenger/cargo services out of Rangoon until 6 May 1955 when she grounded on a voyage to Akyat. The grounding led to her being declared a total loss.^[7]
