The MAJESTIC was built by Blohm & Voss in Hamburg. She was launched in June 1914 for the Hamburg-Amerika Line and named the Bismark. The dimensions were 956ft x 100 ft x 58 ft.; tonnage: 56,599, speed: 23.5 knots. There was accomodation for 700 first class, 545 second class, and 850 third class passengers. After World War 1 the ship was transferred to the British Shipping Controller and was later sold to a consortium which consisted of the Cunard and White Star Line. It was renamed the Majestic.

In 1937 the ship was sold to the British Admirality as a boys training ship and renamed Caldonia. In 1939 it sank in Scotland after having caught fire. It was sold to Wards in 1940 and scrapped sometime after 1943.
