Amongst these, was the moving of the first class passenger accommodation amidships, as this was located further away from the noise and vibration of the propeller, as well as being less affected by the extreme motion of the ship in rough weather. On previous ships, the passenger accommodation had been located aft below the

The dining saloon, which was also amidships, provided individual seats rather than older style bench seating. The steerage accommodation, although lacking in the comfort of the first class, was of higher quality than was common for ships of the period.

She made her maiden voyage in February 1872, from Liverpool to New York, which was marked by extremely rough seas, causing extensive, but minor damage to the ship. From October 1872, she was used experimentally on a service to

As Harland & Wolff had not yet gained any expertise in building engines, they were built by either

The ships were designed to carry 166 crew, plus 166 saloon, or first class passengers, and 1,000 steerage, or third class passengers. The saloon passenger accommodation was luxuriously furnished, and was described as being 'more like an imperial yacht' than a passenger liner, and included features
