Notes:
The reason for my question marks is that some ships have been given the same station number.

* Might be Yogoslavian Princ Andrej?

West Nohno, Stal, Innerton and Oregon I are also listed in the previous convoy, SC 126, while Picotee is listed in SC 125. Inger Toft may have returned to port(?) - also listed in the next convoy.

Some of the ships in this convoy returned to the U.S. in Convoy ONS 7 on May 7-1943.

Accrington (requisitioned in March 1942) was on her 4th voyage as rescue vessel, having started this voyage from Clyde with the westbound Convoy ON 174 on March 21, to Halifax Apr. 5, then returning with SC 127 from Halifax Apr. 16-May 3. ("Convoy Rescue Ships", Arnold Hauge).
