I came across a curious notation while browsing the R.J. Welch Harland & Wolff Collection on the NMNI.com site recently. The following photo appears to show chalk markings on the aft starboard side of funnel #4 indicating the extents of a “Door Cut” to be added, or at least studied, while still under construction. I haven’t seen this particular door indicated on any of the modernized plans though it does seem like a convenient access point into the #4 superstructure as it wasn‘t tied to the boilers. I have not found any photographs with a decent vantage point to conclusively document the door’s existence.
Has anyone found any photographic evidence that could prove or disprove the door’s existence?
Regards,
Luke
