Shipping for Stornoway


Here is a ship that was part of the Coast Lines fleet which served Stornoway from 1925 - 63. Its predecessors were vessels belonging to M Langlands & Sons which was operating along the West Coast and through to the Western Isles from the early 1870s until 1925. The history of this operation has recently been published and details are to be found on the Stornoway Gazette website.
