RMS Orion

 

Photo Album Page One

 

Orion seen berthed in Auckland 

 

This album has a range of images of the ships interiors and decks. However, all except three photographs are the First Class facilities. Sadly, Tourist Class photographs of her interiors are hard to come by. If you, have photographs that are suitable to be added to this page, please email these to me. By doing this, you will give a great deal of pleasure to countless thousands who visit this site. Full credit will be given.

PLEASE NOTE: I receive hundreds of requests for Passenger/Crew Lists and Sailing Schedules. I hereby wish to advise that I am unable to assist due to time restrains and as most shipping companies have long gone these lists/schedules are no longer available. I regret to advise that any request for these will no longer be answered regardless of the circumstances presented!

Photographs on ssmaritime and its associate pages are: 1. By the author. 2. From the author’s private collection. 3. As provided by Shipping Companies and private photographers or collectors. Credit is given to all contributors. However, there are photographs provided to me by supporters without details regarding the photographer concerned. I hereby invite the owners of these images, if they would be so kind to make them-selves known to me, that due credit may be given. I know what it is like, I have seen a multitude of my own photographs on other sites, yet they often refuse to give me credit and at times even refuse to remove them, knowing full well that there is no legal comeback when it comes to the net. However, let us show the charlatans up and do the right thing at all times and give credit where credit is due! Note: I do not credit those who send me photos as they are not the owners of the photographs concerned, unless the image is part of their private collection.

This notice covers all pages, although, I have done my best to ensure that all photographs are duly credited and that this notice is displaced on each page, that is, when a page is updated!
