Scandinavian America Line

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Scandinavian America Line was founded in 1898, when the DFDS (Det Forenede Dampskibs-Selskap - the United Steamship Company of Copenhagen) took over the steamship company Thingvalla Line. The passenger and freight service between Scandinavia and America was operated under the name Scandinavian America Line.

In 1935 Fredrik VIII sailed the final voyage from New York to Copenhagen of the Scandinavian America Line.

One of the ships in the Scandinavian American Line was the SS "United States". The SS "United States" was constructed in 1903 by A. Stephen and Sons in Glasgow. She was 10,095 tons and 500.8 feet long. Her captain was Captain Wulff. The “United States” made its maiden voyage on March 30th 1903; she sailed from Copenhagen to Christiana (Oslo), Christiansand then on to New York by June 3rd 1903. The “United States” left from Copenhagen on her last voyage was October 25th 1934. She was damaged by a fire on September 2nd 1935 at Copenhagen and was scrapped that same year in Leghorn.
