SS President Wilson

Known as one of the America's “finest postwar luxury liners,” the SS President Wilson was first built in 1948 and weighed in at over 15,400 tons. It primarily served as a passenger vessel and, in 1973, was nicknamed the “Oriental Express.”

Although it regaled tourists with luxurious accommodations and exotic vacations, however, the SS President Wilson did expose its passengers, crew, builders and repair workers to toxic asbestos particles.
