TSS ''Great Western'' was a passenger vessel built for the Great Western Railway in 1902. ==History== She was built by Laird Brothers in Birkenhead for the Great Western Railway as a twin-screw steamer for the Irish Sea ferry service between Milford Haven and Waterford. She was a sister ship to TSS ''Great Southern''. Later in her career she operated occasionally from Weymouth. In 1931 it was reported that she achieved a record crossing from Fishguard to Waterford, maintaining an average speed of 19.9 knots. In 1933 she was succeeded by a new ship of the same name, TSS ''Great Western'' and was renamed G.W.R.
