Welcome to our website celebrating the Presidente Peron built in 1949 for Dodero Line by Vickers Armstrong, Barrow in Furness. She sailed on her maiden voyage from London to Buenos Aires in 1949 before launching the new Argentinian service from South America to Europe. She was named after the dictator President Juan Peron but was renamed as Argentina after the dictator's fall in 1955. She stopped carrying passengers in 1966 and was converted into a cargo ship. In 1969 she was laid up in Rosario. Then in 1973 she was scrapped in Campana.
