Description
The EMPIRE PRIDE was in regular trooping until 1954 when the government ended her management contract with Bibby and offered her for sale. She had worked throughout the world although her duties in peacetime confined her mostly to trooping routes between the United Kingdom and the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern areas. She was sold to the Charlton Steamship Co and eventually scrapped in 1963.
