Hi all,
Obviously, I'm new here, so I'll get straight to the point. I'm trying to write a novel which, for all intensive purposes, is set on a ship practically identical to the Titanic. I've decided to use the Titanic, at least, as a model for this ship, and I was wondering if anyone could point me towards some very basic information about the ship at large.
For example, I'd gotten one page into the novel and realised that I don't know what kind of railings the ship used, what it was made of, or how high it was. Just basic things like that: what kind of wood was the deck made out of, how many lights were there in the rooms, etc. It doesn't seem very important at first, but I'm at a complete loss without it.
Anyway, thanks in advance for any help.
