lusitania

After finding about what ocean liner was in this exact same Titanic newsreel, but filmed stern first, this one with a Cunard Line's Lusitania is one of the easiest. Well, sort of. While it's easy to notice that the Lusitania's deck which is the same height as the base of her funnels and her...

Hi, I would be very interested in any information on how the Lusitania wreck has a huge fairly clean split in it just aft of the third funnel, which was included in dive sketches from around 1960. I know this particular cross section was a distinct weak point in the ship as it included several...

Are there any records of how any Titanic survivors reacted to news of the Lusitania? Relatedly, did any of the female Titanic survivors serve or volunteer?

I am making the RMS Lusitania sea trial paint skin in blender for a animation. Special thanks to FelisLeopard for giving me permission to use his orginal model! The name of the project is Lusitania: 18 Minutes.

Hi, I was having a discussion in regard to how badly damaged is the Titanics lower bow, specifically the area that's obscured by the surrounding piled up mud? I was always under the assumption that the lower bow is heavily crushed back due to the forces exterted on it when it ploughed through...

When Lusitania was scheduled to arrive in Liverpool on 6 March 1915, Trade Division signalled Lusitania at Cunard’s request, relaying: ,”Owners advise keep well out. Time arrival to cross bar without waiting.” Admiral Henry Oliver also sent two destroyers, HMS Laverock and HMS Louis to...

Has anyone ever found out where the dog kennels were on the Lusitania? I have looked and looked over the years and found no mention of them, yet I have seen photos of passengers with dogs onboard. I assume they would be in the same location as on the Mauritania. I also assume by the time the...

This is a great documentary about the Lusitania. It's an older one but I'd highly recommend it. Just a bit of help with its soundtrack though; What's the name of the tune that begins at 5:56? Again many thanks, Jack.

Hi Y'all, Is there a good place to read primary accounts made by Lusitania survivors? Reading some of these previous threads, that the best accounts to read are ones made in 1915, soon after the disaster. Beyond that, accounts start to get muddled and contradict past accounts, so I've read...

If you have any information on this man please comment it! Here is the book where I read it from! I don't remember what page, but it was in the sinking sections! If you find the page, please comment it! I want to put this mystery to rest, in my mind at least!

ETA: when it's ready

Are there any detailed side views of both the Lusitania or mauretania? Both the starboard and port sides?

I have never seen the bridge on the wreck and I have no idea what happened to it, can anybody tell me what happened to it?

I'm just curious about some dimensions of the Lusitania's decks. I think the height from the waterline to the top deck is about 70. The height to the aeriels is about 165 ft And the total length is about 787 feet. I'm curious as to what the average height of each deck is. Also, curious about...

She's gone. Look at her: this was taken the other day. The Lusitania is gone, she's not even recognizable.

I have discussed this topic with my friends for some time and I wanted to get other people’s opinions on this topic. If the RMS Olympic sank in any point during her life, when would the ship sunk, what would have caused it, and what would the wreck look like? I theorize that the Olympic would...

According to the Titanic International Society's Facebook Page and the internet, Gregg Bemis who, until 2019, was the owner of the Lusitania's wreck, has passed away a few days ago aged 91...
