The

Titanic

The Titanic

The Titanic's four electric lifts were one of

the new features that made the Titanic

special.

Designed for use by first and second class

passengers only,

they each had their own lift attendant.

None of the four lift attendants survived.

First Class Lift

Return to Ship

The first class staterooms were luxuriously

furnished with curtained beds and

tables and chairs.

The most expensive even had

their own private balcony.

First Class Staterooms

Return to Ship

The Titanic's officer quarters were located just below the boat deck so that they could quickly

reach the bridge in case of emergency.

Captain Smith retired to the officers' quarters about an hour before the ship hit the iceberg.

Officers' Quarters

Return to Ship

The two first class staircases were

very grand indeed.

Over the top of both were glass domes which

allowed sunlight to pass through.

First Class Grand Staircase

Return to Ship

The Bridge was the place where the ship was

operated from.

There was always a senior officer on the

bridge and it was first officer Murdock who

ordered

the Titanic 'hard a starboard' when the iceberg

was spotted.

The Bridge

Return to Ship

The Titanic's gymnasium had all the

latest exercise

equipment - a bicycle, rowing machine

and electric horse.

Separate sessions were available

for men, women and children.

Return to Ship

The Crow's nest was used by the ship's lookouts.

It was from here, at 11.40 pm on April 15 1912,

that lookouts Frederick Fleet and Reginald Lee

first spotted the iceberg that caused the Titanic to sink.

The Crow's Nest

Return to Ship

The two wireless operators, Harold Bride

and John Philips were employed to send

telegrams on behalf of the passengers.

They also received and sent messages

to other ships. It was here that the

messages warning of icebergs were

received on the afternoon of 14th April

1912 and the SOS messages were sent

when it was realised that the Titanic

would sink.

Marconi/Wireless Room

Return to Ship

Return to Ship

Food for both first and second class passengers was prepared in the same galley. There was a large ice-cream maker as well

as refrigerated rooms for storing meat and perishable

goods.

First and Second Class Galley

The First Class smoking room was open for most of the day. Passengers could

purchase the most luxurious cigarettes and

tobacco here.

First Class Smoking Room

Return to Ship

Second class staterooms

were occupied by up to four

people. By the standards of

the day they were luxurious

with mahogany furniture and

linoleum floors.

Second Class Staterooms

Return to Ship

This was a lifting device to enable large objects to be

lifted onto ships. In the film Titanic, a cargo crane is seen lifting crates and a car onto

the ship.

Cargo Crane

Return to Ship

This was one of

the leisure rooms

provided for the

use of third class

passengers.

Third Class Smoking Room

Return to Ship

This cafe was

designed to look like a

Paris street cafe and

the waiters were

French.

Cafe Parisien

Return to Ship

Return to Ship

In order to ensure that food served at tables was as fresh as possible, the Titanic was fitted

with a refrigerated storage area. There were different areas for meat, cheese, flowers and wines

and champagne.

Refrigerated Cargo

The Titanic's A La Carte (anything from the menu)

restaurant served the finest food. Passengers could

reserve tables and book areas for private parties.

A la Carte Restaurant

Return to Ship

Return to Ship

This large, pleasantly furnished

room was where second class

passengers took their meals.

Food served to second class

passengers was cooked in the

first class kitchen.

Second Class Dining Room

Return to Ship

This was where the third

class passengers took their

meals. It was said to be like

second class dining rooms

on other ships.

Third Class Dining Room

Return to Ship

First class passengers met in the first class reception

room. They would often enjoy a cocktail together before going into dinner.

First Class Reception Room

Return to Ship

The Titanic's turkish

baths was one of the

most luxurious to be

found in Europe.

Turkish Baths

Return to Ship

The Titanic was on of the first

ships to have a swimming

pool on board. It was filled

with sea water which was

heated by the boilers. There

were separate times for men

and women.

Swimming Pool

Return to Ship

As part of it's recreational facilities for passengers, the

Titanic had a full-size squash court. Because the squash court was

located just below the bridge but above the watertight

compartments, it was used by the ship's officers to monitor the rise

of the water.

Squash Court

Return to Ship

The Titanic had a fully equipped post office staffed

by five mail clerks. Over three thousand mail bags

were lost when the ship sank and over 7 million items of mail never reached their

destination.

The Post Office

Return to Ship

Passengers' cargo was loaded into the cargo room by crane. Among the items lost when the

Titanic sank were:

A Renault 35hp car A Marmalade machine

50 cases of toothpaste 5 grand pianos

Four cases of opium A jewelled copy of the Rubaiyat of Omar

Khayyam

Cargo Room

Return to Ship

Third Class berths on the

Titanic were used by up to

eight people. As you can see

in the picture above, they

slept in bunks and used a

communal sink.

Third Class Berths

Return to Ship

This was the passage between the boilers that was used by the firemen. In the film, Rose and

Jack run through the fireman's passage to the cargo room. However, on the Titanic the

fireman's passage was on the deck below the cargo room.

Fireman's Passage

Return to Ship

The Titanic had a crew of about 890 men and women of whom only 212 were saved. The crew's quarters were

located at the rear of the ship on decks D, E and F.
