The Carron Company also had steam cargo passenger ships. These ships were of between two and three thousand tons. I know three of these ships were named the Forth, the Carron and the Avon. The Avon was built by Wigham Richardson in 1897. It weighed approx 2000 tons. It was a twin screw ship powered by a triple expansions steam engine. This vessel was used on a twice weekly service from Grangemouth, the Tyne to London. The Avon was mainly used on the Tyne to London leg. In the early 1920's the company decided to come out of owning ships after suffering several losses from the fleet during World War One.
