SS Calgarian was an Allan Line steam turbine ocean liner that was built in 1914 and converted into a Royal Navy armed merchant cruiser. Until 1916 she served with the 9th Cruiser Squadron, patrolling off West Africa and then off the east coast of the United States. She spent the remainder of her career making transatlantic crossings between Canada and Britain. An Imperial German Navy U-boat sank her off Rathlin Island, Ireland on 1 March 1918. Three torpedoes hit her, and her sinking killed two officers and 47 ratings.

  • Die Calgarian war ein 1914 in Dienst gestellter Ozeandampfer der britisch-kanadischen Reederei Allan Line, der im nordatlantischen Passagier- und Frachtverkehr zwischen Großbritannien und den USA eingesetzt wurde. Sie und ihr baugleiches Schwesterschiff Alsatian waren die größten Schiffe ihrer Reederei und die letzten, die für die Allan Line gebaut wurden. Sie waren die größten Dampfer, die zu ihrer Zeit den Sankt-Lorenz-Strom kreuzten. Nach nur fünf Überfahrten wurde die Calgarian für den Kriegsdienst eingezogen und als bewaffneter Hilfskreuzer (Armed Merchant Cruiser) verwendet. 1918 wurde das Schiff vor der Nordküste Irlands von einem deutschen U-Boot versenkt.
