Other titanic staircase


What was the difference between the main 1st class staircase on titanic and the 2nd staircase near the back of the ship?

The aft grand staircase was very similar but it served less decks and the clocks panel was notably different.

Yes, it did. I should know, b/c I have a Revell Titanic ship model...for which the aft grand staircase required such a dome to be glued onto its place.

Wonder if one can still buy such ship models of Titanic?

I think you can. I think the THS are selling it on their site.

Yes she does have an aft elevator, Aloptia. I know this b/c you "can" see Titanic's elevator house on her aft boat deck...which is located just aft of her 4th funnel.
