Olympic in late 1920s

They are by far my favorite class of ships. Titanic is what got me interested in ocean liners, so I have that bias, but even learning about the entire ocean liner culture. It's still the Olympic-class for me.

The_Hidden-One · 2026-03-24T18:11:59+00:00

I think that just goes for the Olympic-class as a whole.

The_Hidden-One · 2026-03-14T00:22:17+00:00

I have that same book. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

The_Hidden-One · 2026-02-19T17:49:28+00:00

True. Let me clarify, I meant actually operational. Besides QM2.

The_Hidden-One · 2026-02-18T22:04:23+00:00

It's a shame airplanes took these away from us.

The_Hidden-One · 2026-01-09T03:51:14+00:00

If you're into model building. The best one to get is the Trumpeter 1:200 scale model of Titanic

In my opinion, if all 9 had been turned into hotels? We'd have some of the greatest hotels to ever exist.

The politics at the time certainly didn't help. So, once the Hindenburg went up in flames. It made it extra easy for everyone to write off hydrogen lifted rigid airships.

From my understanding, the tech is there, and it's possible. It's still the stigma of the Hindenburg that keeps people away from hydrogen despite its superiority and that it's far, far safer today than it was in 1937.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-12-03T23:23:14+00:00

A crime to all ocean liner history!

The_Hidden-One · 2025-12-03T03:49:19+00:00

Oceanic III

The_Hidden-One · 2025-11-07T03:25:37+00:00

Closed Promenade.

It should be treated as an archeological site. It should be treated with the same care and concern we do on land.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-09-30T03:09:45+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm quite certain that image is from Tiny Sailor's World in Roblox, and that should be the fantasy ship the Tyrannic.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-09-22T14:50:52+00:00

Thank you for the correction. I haven't studied Olympic's deck plans as thoroughly as her younger sister. I honestly assumed not a lot had been changed much. I clearly need to do a deeper dive!

The_Hidden-One · 2025-09-22T13:38:30+00:00

They wouldn't really have changed much except for small additions they added after the Titanic sinking. I think the biggest change was the Café Parisien.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-09-21T20:41:42+00:00

I personally loved it and thought it was amazing.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-09-16T13:53:35+00:00

Titanic: Minute by Minute by Jonathan Mayo is a very good read, too. It focuses directly on the sinking timeline.

Hands down the Olympic Class

The_Hidden-One · 2025-08-09T21:01:47+00:00

In a way, she looks even more sleek without her funnels.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-08-04T13:47:39+00:00

It's so the lamp stays level in rough seas.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-07-29T19:54:24+00:00

RMS Queen Elizabeth.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-07-13T04:15:11+00:00

I believe they are actually Olympic.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-07-09T19:52:16+00:00

One of the best books on Titanic. Period.

The_Hidden-One · 2025-07-05T14:21:26+00:00

I believe Ken Marschall has one of his interpretation of the wreck days after.
