- MV Empire Star was a UK refrigerated cargo liner. She was built by Harland and Wolff in 1935 as one of Blue Star Line's -class ships, designed to ship frozen meat from Australia and New Zealand to the United Kingdom. She served in the Second World War and is distinguished for her role in the Evacuation of Singapore in February 1942. She was sunk by torpedo in October 1942 with the loss of 42 lives. She was the second of three Blue Star ships to be called Empire Star. The first was a steamship that was built in 1919, renamed Tudor Star in 1935 and scrapped in 1950. The third was a replacement Imperial Star-class ship that was built in 1946 and scrapped in 1971. (en)
