SS Orcades was built in Germany and launched as Prinz Ludwig. Served on routes to Asia until laid up in Germany during the 1914-1918 War. As part of war reparations Prinz Ludwig came under control of the British Shipping Controller in 1919 and was used for troop repatriations to Australia. Prinz Ludwig was purchased by the Orient Steam Navigation Company (Orient Line) in 1921, underwent refit and was renamed Orcades. The vessel then served on the UK-Australia route until 1924. Orcades is an ancient name for the Orkney Islands.

  • Der Reichspostdampfer Prinz Ludwig (1906) wurde beim Stettiner Vulcan für den gemischten Passagier- und Fracht-Dienst des Norddeutschen Lloyd (NDL), Bremen, auf der Reichspostdampferlinie nach Ostasien gebaut. Er ersetzte dort mit der sehr ähnlichen Prinz Eitel Friedrich Schiffe der Barbarossa-Klasse. Beide Schiffe ähnelten im Aufbau den Schiffen der Feldherren-Klasse, waren jedoch etwas längere Zweischornstein-Schiffe mit zwei Masten. (de)
