There are 2 reasons why they stopped operating, these reasons are: 1. many were growing weary of these ships due to the fact that they always sunk and, 2. New tecnology was being invented and the steamship was too old for it's time, it had to move on and became discontinued. The same thing happened with the coal trains (well, for #2 that is).
