EMPRESS OF JAPAN I ALONG WITH THE EMPRESS OF INDIA AND THE EMPRESS OF CHINA (1890) WERE THE FIRST PASSENGER LINERS COMMISSIONED BY CANADIAN PACIFIC STEAMSHIPS FOR SERVICE ACROSS THE PACIFIC OCEAN. IN THE PRE-FIRST WORLD WAR YEARS, EMPRESS OF JAPAN WAS DUBBED THE 'QUEEN OF THE PACIFIC' AS SHE WAS THE FASTEST LINER ON THE FAR EASTERN RUN, SETTING A RECORD SAILING FROM YOKOHAMA TO VICTORIA IN JUST UNDER EIGHT DAYS.
Function
This model is likely one of three models commissioned by the builder of the three Pacific empress ships, Naval Construction & Armaments Company of Barrow Scotland, to help Canadian Pacific decide on a colour scheme for the new vessels.
Technical
EXAMPLE OF A TRANS-PACIFIC PASSENGER LINER CONVERTIBLE TO AN ARMED MERCHANT CRUISER. The colour scheme of this model does not match the well-documented descriptions of the Pacific Empresses as-built or circa 1922 colour schemes. See article by David Jones in SI file.
