Touring the Titanic

When the RMS Titanic left Southampton, England on 10 April 1912 bound for New York, she was the largest ocean liner afloat and thought to be unsinkable. More than just a ship, the Titanic was a symbol of the wealth, sumptuous tastes and engineering skill of the Edwardian age. But her collision with an iceberg in the North Atlantic on 14 April – and the loss of more than 1,500 lives – marked the end of an era. Today, more than 109 years later, the Titanic's tragic story continues to captivate. Here we've uncovered incredible images that show what life was really like on the most famous and ill-fated voyage in history and ask whether the ship might sail once again.
