SS Furnessia. One class cabin only. The entire accommodation, consisting of Promenade Deck, Dining Room, Music Room, Library, Smoking Room, and all Staterooms on the main and upper decks are Exclusively for the Use of Second-Cabin Passengers.
Note: The SS Furnessia of the Anchor Line was refitted as a one-class cabin ocean liner in 1911. This transformation aimed to adapt to changing passenger demands and enhance the ship's marketability in the competitive transatlantic travel industry. By converting it into a one-class vessel, the ship was better suited to cater to middle-class travelers, including immigrants and tourists, while maintaining a standard of comfort reflective of its earlier operations.
These Steamships are Fitted with MARCONI WIRELESS TELEGRAPH.
