    Elevators and Pool

    Hi, I have a couple questions regarding the Titanic. Recently I found out that there was a pool on board and was wondering if it was for 1st class passengers only or were 2nd class passengers allowed to swim in it as well? My other question deals with the Elevators on board the Titanic...

    D Deck Elevators electric sign box

    Hello, Last day, I was watching the 1996 footage of the wreck. I noticed something which I believe is quite interesting. A mystery rectangular box can be seen in the D Deck Reception Room, just right to the Starboard "elevator" pillar (one of the two that were added on the Titanic in front of...

    Using the elevators during the sinking

    Even the Titanic crew had mor common sense to close the elevators when she was sinking. Why did the Lusitania crew let people continue to use the elevators after she started sinking? Stupid move that cost some people their lives.

    The Elevators

    If this is a stupid question, don't shoot me, just the horse I came in on! How far did the elevators go down on the Titanic? In the 1997 movie, Rose goes down to E Deck on one. Did they actually extend down that far? And what about the second-class elevators? How far did they go? (I...
