Hamburg Steam Ship routes to London and Amsterdam 1825 to 1833
By Erling Berger
Two steam ship routes were set up in Hamburg in 1825: Hamburg to London and Hamburg to Amsterdam. In 1828 the route Hamburg to Hull was added.
Some on-line Hamburg newspapers provide news of the movements of these steam ships.

- Börsen Halle 1833
Usually, to find an article about one of these ships, search inside for the text "dampf". If you have the name of a particular ship then search for " dampf shipname". For example, once you have opened a link, search inside for "dampf jolliffe", ["dampf" means "steam"]. In the Hamburg newspapers every advertisement for a steam boat service has the words "Dampf-Packetfahrt".
