Additional NotesTALUNE was the most modern ship transferred from Tasmanian Steam Ship Co when that company was taken over by USSCo and fitted well into the USSCo services. She achieved publicity when she came across the PERTHSHIRE which had been adrift in the Tasman Sea for eight weeks with a broken propeller shaft and towed her to Sydney. Last edited by: John Brown
