Titanic

In the summer of 1907, Bruce Ismay and Lord Pirrie made plans for three White Star super liners that would take ocean travel to new heights in luxury and comfort. The ships would surpass all other ships ever built in sheer size luxury. They would be known as the Olympic Class Liners, after the first to be built. Olympic would set the new standard in ocean travel. Her sisters, Titanic and Gigantic, sure as their names, would certainly surpass that standard. Nearly 900 feet long and 45,000 tons, the trio would be the largest moving objects ever crafted by the hand of man and would put White Star at the forefront of the race to control the North Atlantic shipping lanes.
