A book by a second cousin of Francis Browne contains previously unpublished - often stunning - photographs by the famous Irish photographer. There are also pictures of ships and the author claims that some of them are the Titanic. Can you tell?

Found his framed photo in an antique shop in NJ in the early 80's (1980-1982) measures about 14" x 6" Any help identifying this would be appreciated. I have not been able to find another similar image. Thank you

According to Mark Chirnside’s book about the RMS Olympic, RMS Majestic carried a total of 274,514 passengers between 1922 and 1929. She made 221 transatlantic crossings over that 8 year span, averaging 1,242 passengers per crossing. Over the same timespan, RMS Olympic made 234 transatlantic...

Hello fellow members. I’m currently looking for certain accommodation plans from Olympic. I’m looking for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd class accommodation plans from the 1920s and 30s. Thanks

Besides the White Swan Hotel in Alnwick, Northumberland, which contains interiors from the Olympic, are there any other places around the world that currently have or have had furniture or fittings from White Star liners?

In the aftermath of Titanic's sinking, were people afraid to book passage on the RMS Olympic. We all know about the crew "Mutiny." In 1912 she went in for refitting, being equiped with double sides and a double bottom and watertight compartments that reached from the bottom of the hull to the...

Hello, since no one beside Revell bothered to do the Olympic (a now rare model, if it's available, it'll be at a verry high price), I wonder how hard it'd be to take a Titanic 1/700 scale and turn it in an Olympic (I'm sure I'll get other 1/570 revell kit ,I don't want to redo the windows/deal...

On this day, July 21, 1924, Dick Williams claimed the gold medal after winning the mixed doubles at the Olympic Games in Paris, partnering Hazel Wightman. Twelve years before, Williams had survived the sinking of the Titanic and had closely escaped having his leg amputated after remaining for...

Hi y'all. Was going through a list of plans supplied by Northern Museum of Northern Ireland (NMNI) and I saw this plan, a Lifeboat by "Wilson and Pirrie". I'm assuming Lord Pirrie, so this could be one of either the Cutter (28ft) or Regular (30ft) boats. Thanks!

Does anyone know specifically which interior spaces (including specific staterooms) were directly affected or damaged by the collision between the HMS Hawke and the RMS Olympic? Thanks in advance for the reply. :)

My new art piece of depicting how the Olympic would've looked like with Design D, but with an added main mast (the aft mast)...

Considering that Britannic's wreck has been on the ocean floor since November 21st 1916, and to this day she is still considerably intact and retaining her full 94 foot beam, does it decisively prove that all three Olympic Class liners were robust ships that were built to last?

Following the titanic disaster, I know the Olympic underwent a major refit, raising some bulkheads and adding an inner skin. I know that the Britannic was also altered to also fit these plans. Were the Britannic and Olympics new bulkhead design identical? I can only find images of Olympics...

Hello, while looking through Mark Chirnside book "The olympic class- olympic, titanic, britannic", there's a part where it say bruce ismay made suggestion after olympic maiden voyage in regard to B deck, I wonder if it's identical or different to what titanic got, I think I'll have to add that...

Hello, I wonder if when the construction of the olympic and titanic started in 1910/11, the britannic/gigantic was supposed to be identical, a lot of modification in 1914 seem to have been added after the sinking of the titanic like the huge davits visible on the harland and wolff model source...

In case anyone is interested, here's my . In here I decided to compile a research done by the historians with a few details that I know of. For those who remember my early book, it's me going through the Internet to review the sources and trying to fix a view issues that were outdated and...

Britannic's owner, Simon Mills, has a brand new book coming out in October. Olympic Titanic Britannic: The anatomy and evolution of the Olympic Class. It looks like it'll be a very interesting title, and promises to have fold out technical drawings and blueprints, unique wreck images, CGI...

Hey all, couldn't find this online so I figured I'd ask: is there anywhere to get a glimpse (or at least a rough idea) of the Olympic's financial history? Ie what on the ship made money and what didn't, how adjustments over the years resulted, her operating costs, etc.? I'm curious how...
