SS Indiana (1873) SS "Indiana" was an iron passenger-cargo steamship built by William Cramp & Sons in 1873. The third of a series of four "Pennsylvania"-class vessels, "Indiana" and her three sister ships – "Pennsylvania", "Ohio" and "Illinois" – were the largest iron ships ever built in the United States at the time of their construction, and among the first to be fitted with compound steam engines.
