TSS Duke of Lancaster is a former railway steamer passenger ship that operated in Europe from 1956 to 1979, and is beached at Llannerch-y-Mor Wharf near Mostyn Docks, on the River Dee, in north Wales. She replaced an earlier 3,600-ton ship of the same name operated by the London Midland and Scottish Railway company between Heysham and Belfast.
As of 2021 it was owned by Anthony Rowley and The Duke of Lancaster Appreciation Society.
Along with her sister ships the Duke of Rothesay and the Duke of Argyll, she was amongst the last passenger-only steamers built for British Railways (at that time, also a ferry operator). She was a replacement for the 1928 steamer, Duke of Lancaster, built by the London Midland and Scottish Railway.
Duke of Lancaster arrived in Llanerch-y-Mor, North Wales from Barrow-in-Furness, in August 1979 to start her new life as "the Fun Ship". However, there were frequent legal battles with the local councils and the owners closed the business in 2004. As a result of this the owners "walked away". Subsequent owners have faced similar issues.
