lusitania

During the last few voyages did Lusitania carry any bayonets? I know the .303 inch ammunition has been discussed for a long time, but I can't find an answer to my question.

Greetings all! Let me preface this by saying I know next to nothing about the sinking or wreck of this Cunarder--I am a White Star man through and through--but I was having a conversation with my dad today in which he brought up that the Royal Navy attempted to destroy the wreck in the 1940s...

A random thought occurred to me (as they tend to when being lugged through the bowels of the New York City subway)... would anyone happen to know where Lusitania was the night Titanic sank? I know she was obviously nowhere near Titanic, but I'm curious as to if she were in the middle of a run or...

I see the anniversary of Lusitania's sinking is coming up in 3 years. Do you think it'll have the level of media culture frenzy that Titanic is currently having?

I am considering converting the 350 scale entex Lusitania into the Mauretania. I would be grateful for any suggestions on matters that I should consider specifically relating to the conversion of the model itself. Or indeed if this conversion is not practical. I am aware of some of the...

I have a copy of the above book in excellent condition - it has looked after by the family for a long time, as my Great Grandmother sadly went down with the Lusitania. If anybody is interested in purchasing, please do contact me and I shall reply in more detail with comprehensive photographs.

Hi There, I am trying to find some more info on a Waiter who perished on board the Lusitania in 1915. It is a long shot but I am trying to see if he might be distantly related to me but due to him dying at sea im not able to get anymore info from his death register without going to the national...

Five years ago the Titanic Historic Society journal The Commutator [vol.29 #170 2005 reproduced what appears to be an entire article which was originally published by The Sphere. As well as learning the source of now famous drawings and paintings that now represent the disaster I saw a rare...

Hi I Have several letters from the Lusitania and the Olympic and interested to know if anyone has an idea what the value on these items is?

Does anybody already watched the discovery channel episode of treasure quest featuring the lusitania? I didn't found any thread about it in this section. I just watched it recently and found it good but still need to have more in-depth study, just like what study they gave to the titanic and...

Does anyone know anything about the design of Lusitania's turbines, or indeed where such information might be found? As best I can tell, there was no gearing between the turbine and propellor, thus leading to the shuddering at high speed because the propellors were running too fast, while the...

I came across National Geographic's production online for anyone who might not have seen it. http://www.snagfilms.com/films/title/last_voyage_of_the_lusitania/

I am planning to post some of my Lusitania artwork here and first up is "Two Minutes Later" an underwater perspective of the hull and the infamous hole. cheers Martin

Hey all, I'm doing a bit of research which relates to the S.S. Lusitania, but i've been struggling to find much info out about the ship. At this stage, basically all I know is that it entered service in 1871, at one stage travelled the England-Australia route, was wrecked off Newfoundland in...

Today, we placed a chapter from our coming article online here at ET. Mrs. Rose Ellen Murray, the wife of a U.S. Navy captain, loved ships. She also loved the spotlight. Unquestionably a Lusitania survivor, she added surviving the Titanic ~ which, she hadn't~ to her autobiography. And, if the...
