posticon Re: names of liners.


I really hate to get picky here, but the ships were not stolen... they were war reparations...

Re: names of liners.


They weren't "bought from the germans"...they were seized by the allies.

White Star called them Homeric (Columbus) and Majestic (Bismarck).

Re: names of liners.


Topic moved to RMS Olympic Forum from Archive Forum - 20/6/09.


Majestic (II) was the largest ship that the White Star line ever owned, she was the largest in the world until Normandie, which entered service in 1935 and the largest British ship until Queen Mary entered serice in 1936.

Majestic andHomeric were both sold off in 1936.
