The ''Duke of York'' was a steamer passenger ship initially operated by the London Midland and Scottish Railway which saw service from 1935 to 1964.〔British nationalised shipping, 1947-1968, William Paul Clegg, John S. Styring – 1968〕 She was renamed HMS ''Duke of Wellington'' for the duration of World War II.
==In service==
Built at Harland and Wolff, Belfast and completed in 1935, she was designed to operate as a passenger ferry on the Heysham to Belfast, alongside the existing 1928 ships on that route, RMS ''Duke of Lancaster'', the RMS ''Duke of Rothesay'' and the RMS ''Duke of Argyll'',
She introduced a new principle into the cross-channel trade, the ''tourist class'', which had been in use on the Atlantic lines since 1928.
The Duke of York had one of the earliest automatic fire extinguishers, by Grinnell. Small glass tubes contained a liquid which expanded on a given temperature being reached, and burst the containers, opening water valves above.
