EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment the Canadian Pacific Steamship Montrose sets sail from Liverpool, England, in the 1930s. The Montrose, one of several Canadian Pacific Cabin Steamers, was a popular choice for transatlantic travelers seeking a more affordable and comfortable journey to Canada. The image showcases the Montrose's distinctive funnels, billowing with smoke as the steamship begins its voyage across the Atlantic. The ocean stretches out behind the vessel, its surface dotted with the waves created by the ship's departure. The Montrose's massive size and impressive presence are on full display as it leaves the dock, towering over the quay and the small figures of people waving goodbye. The 1930s were a significant period in the history of transatlantic travel, with steamships like the Canadian Pacific Cabin Steamers playing a crucial role in connecting Canada and Europe. The Montrose and its sister ships offered passengers a more affordable alternative to the luxury liners of the time, making travel across the Atlantic more accessible to a wider audience. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the experience of transatlantic travel during the 1930s. The Montrose's departure from Liverpool marks the beginning of a new journey, filled with excitement and anticipation for the adventures and opportunities that awaited those making the crossing to Canada.
