Paddle Steamer Resources by Tramscape : Paddle Steamer Database

Welcome to Paddle Steamer Resources by Tramscape - the Internet's largest database of mainly European Paddle Steamers past and present.

Details and photos of coastal, estuarine and river vessels - mainly paddle wheel steamers in operational and static roles, but also of other vessels sailing alongside, or as successors to, these magnificent side-wheelers. The Historical Database includes details of steamer operating companies in the major areas where paddle steamers sailed and numerous individual histories of vessels of the past and the present. The database is being developed to become one of the world's leading "libraries" of paddle steamer photographs. Includes also links to internet information sources for paddlers worldwide.
