Empress of Japan, Canada Pacific Line
RMS Empress of Japan was an ocean liner built in 1929–1930 by Fairfield Shipbuilding & Engineering Company in Scotland for Canadian Pacific Steamships. She was the second of two vessels to be named Empress of Japan and regularly traversed the trans-Pacific route between the west coast of Canada and the Far East until 1942. In the same year she was renamed RMS Empress of Scotland. In 1957, the Hamburg Atlantic Line purchased the ship and re-named her TS Hanseatic
