RMS ''Transylvania'' was a British liner later converted into an armed merchant cruiser, pennant F56. She was launched on 11 March 1925 and sunk by the German U-boat on 10 August 1940. The SS ''Transylvania'' was built in Glasgow, Scotland, by the Fairfield company, Yard No. 595. She was 552 feet long and 70.2 feet wide. The liner had two propellers and could sail at 17 knots. ''Transylvania'' had three funnels (smokestacks) but only needed one; three funnels were more visually appealing and attracted more passengers than her similar-looking fleetmates that only had one funnel apiece. ''Transylvania'' was completed on 2 September 1925, and sailed from Glasgow to New York on her maiden voyage 10 days later. ''Transylvania'' could carry 279 in First Class, 344 in Second Class and 800 in Third Class. In September 1939, the liner became an armed merchant cruiser and on 10 August 1940, off Malin Head, Ireland she was torpedoed by . ''Transylvania'' was being towed afterward but sank before reaching land. 36 lives were lost.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=uboat.net )〕 == Sources ==
