SS Oregon was a record-breaking British passenger liner that won the Blue Riband for the Guion Line as the fastest liner on the Atlantic in 1884. She was sold to the Cunard Line after a few voyages and continued to improve her passage times for her new owner. In 1885, Oregon was chartered to the Royal Navy as an auxiliary cruiser, and her success in this role resulted in the Admiralty subsidizing suitable ships for quick conversion in the event of a crisis. She returned to Cunard service in November 1885 and four months later collided with a schooner while approaching New York. Virtually all persons on board were rescued before Oregon sank. Her wreck, 18 miles south of Long Island, remains a popular diving site.

  • Die Oregon war ein 1883 in Dienst gestellter Ozeandampfer der britischen Reederei Guion Line, der 1884 von der Cunard Line gekauft wurde und im März 1886 nach einer Schiffskollision vor Long Island sank. Die Oregon war eines der schnellsten Schiffe ihrer Zeit und war 1884/85 Inhaberin des begehrten Blauen Bands. (de)

  • O SS Oregon foi um navio de passageiros britânico que em 1884 bateu o recorde de velocidade e ganhou a Flâmula Azul do Guion Line como o mais rápido cruzeiro no Atlântico. Vendido para a Cunard Line depois de algumas viagens, em 1885 foi fretado pela Marinha Real como um cruzador auxiliar e seu sucesso nesta função resultou no Almirantado subsidiar navios adequados a serem enviados para a conversão rápida em caso de uma crise. Ele voltou ao serviço da Cunard em novembro de 1885 e quatro meses depois colidiu com um barco enquanto fazia a aproximação a Nova York. Todas as pessoas a bordo foram resgatadas antes do Oregon afundar. Seu naufrágio, a 18 km a leste de Long Island, continua a ser um local popular de mergulho. (pt)
  • Le SS Oregon (1883), deuxième du nom (à ne pas confondre avec le SS Oregon (1882) de la Dominion Line), est un paquebot transatlantique de la compagnie maritime britannique Guion Line construit en 1883. Il est le troisième d'une série de trois paquebots rapides (avec l’Arizona et l’Alaska) commandés par Stephen Barker Guion, le directeur de la Guion Line aux chantiers navals John Elder & Co. à Govan (Écosse). Il dessert la ligne transatlantique entre Liverpool et New York via Queenstown et devient en 1884 le paquebot transatlantique le plus rapide du monde en décrochant le Ruban bleu, détenu par son prédécesseur l'Alaska depuis deux ans, en 7 jours 2 heures et 18 minutes à la vitesse moyenne de 17,12 nœuds entre New York et Queenstown.
