Blue Funnel Line
Ocean
Steam Ship Company Limited / Nederlandsche Stoomboot Maatschappij 'Ocean'
/ East Indian Ocean Steam Ship Company
/ China Mutual Steam Navigation
Company
Alfred Holt commenced shipowning with Thomas Ainsworth in 1852 and
built their first new ship in 1854, which they immediately chartered
to the
French Government for use in the Crimean War. The company started sailings
to the West Indies in 1855, but in the face of competition from established
companies, later pulled out of this route. In 1864 they began sailing
to China and the Far East, and have since become the major British company
serving this area. The company was registered as the Ocean Steam Ship
Company Limited, in 1865.
 In
1891, a Dutch subsidiary company, Nederlandsche Stoomboot Maatschappij
'Ocean' (N.S.M.O) was formed to compete with Dutch companies
serving the East Indies, and the company also formed the Singapore based
East Indian Ocean SS Co. the same year. The China Mutual Steam Navigation
Co. was taken over in 1902 together with their fleet of 13 steamers and
their route between China and the West Coasts of Canada and the USA.
Although ships were nominally owned by China Mutual SN Co. after this
date, these are not shown seperately for the purposes of this list.
In
1915 Royden's Indra Line of seven
ships was purchased with their New York -
Far East service. Greenshields, Cowie & Co.'s Knight Line was bought in 1917
and a joint passenger service to Australia with the White Star Line was formed
in
1924 and this was joined by the Aberdeen
Line in 1926. The Glen and Shire
Lines (not the Scottish Shire Line) were taken over in 1935 following the
collapse of the Royal Mail group, and
a controlling interest in the Straits SS
Co. was
acquired the same year. Shaw, Savill had
taken over the joint service to Australia
from White Star Line, but Blue Funnel
Line withdrew from this partnership in
1939.
In 1967 the Blue Funnel and Elder
Dempster Line fleets merged and in 1972
the group acquired William Cory & Son Ltd and became Ocean
Trading & Transport Co. Ltd. Transfers between different companies within the
group became common after this date, but these have been largely ignored for
the purposes of this list.
Many thanks to Ted Finch for his assistance in collecting this data.

an all inclusive list but should only be used as a guide. If you would
