The Fleets
New York & Continental Line
The company was established by Robertson, Shankland & Co, London in 1907, basically
to carry grain and flour to Europe, but made an unsuccesful attempt to
enter the emigrant trade between Hamburg, Rotterdam, Halifax and New York.
The service closed after a few voyages.
