Some photos of the SS Mount Temple
Whilst researching her involvement the night Titanic went down (looking through Wikipedia out of boredom) I found out that Mount Temple actually arrived on scene shortly after Carpathia and Californian arrived, they asked Carpathia if she could do anything but got no response. Eventually they were told not to remain on standby and to continue to her port of call.
Found this Gem on Reddit
I’m making a mini documentary on the Franconia.
Probably gonna be posted on YouTube within the week.
It’s gonna be titled RMS Franconia : the Boston Runner
I’ll see ya then.
(this is also why I haven’t been as active)
anyone else point out inaccuracies in titanic art like the Countries of the World song??
Like I’ll look at a stock image of Titanic going down and I’ll think
🎶“The angle, the lifeboats, the lights, the funnels”🎶 and etc
Photos I found of the SS Californian
I now have a postcard from the Celtic, with a…. Surprising detail
On the back of the card, there is a stamp with the date and time in which the card was stamped
With the date April 15th, 1909.
Exactly 3 years later, Celtic would receive a distress call from the Titanic. The captain warned the wireless operators to keep the news to themselves and to not tell passengers. She was 700 miles away. Too far to help.
God please no…..
