Royal Mail Ship
Royal Mail Ship( sometimes Steam- ship or Steamer), usually seen in its abbreviated form RMS, is the ship prefix used for seagoing vessels that carry mail under contract to the British Royal Mail.
The designation dates back to 1840.
Any vessel designated as" RMS" has the right to fly both the pennant of the Royal Mail when sailing and to include the Royal Mail" crown" insignia with any identifying device and/ or design for the ship.
It was used by many shipping lines, but is often associated in particular with the White Star Line, Cunard Line, Royal Mail Lines and Union- Castle Line, which held a number of high- profile mail contracts, and traditionally prefixed the names of many of their ships with the initials" RMS".
While some lines in the past, particularly the Royal Mail Lines, called all their ships" RMS", technically a ship would use the prefix only while contracted to carry mail, and would revert at other times to a standard designation such as" SS".
RMS Amazon (1851)
RMS" Amazon" was a British wooden hulled three- masted barque, paddle steamer and Royal Mail Ship owned by the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company.
She was one of a set of five sister ships built at the beginning of the 1850s for RMSP's routes between Southampton and the Caribbean.

Postal Services Act 2011
The Postal Services Act 2011 is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.
The Act enabled the British Government to sell shares in Royal Mail to private investors and includes the possible mutualisation of the Post Office.
The Act allows private buyers to own up to 90% of Royal Mail, with Royal Mail staff being offered at least 10% of the shares of the company.
It enabled the Post Office business to be separated from Royal Mail, to allow it to remain in government ownership or to be mutualised.
It provided for the government to take over the assets and liabilities of the Royal Mail pension scheme, which had a considerable deficit.
It allowed for the transfer of regulatory responsibility from Postcomm to the communications regulator Ofcom.
The Act also wrote into law the requirement for Royal Mail to maintain a six day a week universal service.
During its passage through the House of Commons, the government added an amendment to include a guarantee that a silhouette or portrait of The Queen's head would remain on British postage stamps even if the Royal Mail were to be taken into foreign ownership.
Following this stage it was considered by the House of Lords, and the government added further amendments to safeguard the universal service.
The Act was granted Royal Assent on 13 June 2011 and the majority of its provisions came into force on 1 October 2011.
