The Titanic has continued in 93 years to stir the imagination of many a loyal group of fine people you could ever want to meet.
Time for some brandy and a cigar to celebrate the beginning of the countdown to April 14th. |

Captain Smith boards the Titanic at 7:30 a.m. and receives the sailing report from Chief Officer Henry Wilde. Between 9:30 and 11:30 a.m., the three White Star Line boat-trains arrive carrying 1st, 2nd, and 3rd class passengers from Waterloo Station near London. The Titanic departs Southampton at 12 noon. As she pulled out towards the river Test, the New York's mooring lines snapped, causing her to swing out of her berth, stern first, towards Titanic. The collision was averted, the New York was secured, and Titanic left Southampton at around 1:30 pm. By 5:30 p.m., the Titanic arrives in Cherbourg. Titanic rides at anchor in Cherbourg Harbor, all lights ablaze. Due to her size, she can't pull into port as the piers are too small. Instead, she is anchored offshore. Cherbourg passengers finally board tenders and wait to be ferried out to Titanic. Mail is brought aboard. By 8:30 p.m. the anchor is raised and the Titanic leaves for Queenstown, Ireland. |

Titanic arrives at Queenstown, Ireland. It is her final stop before heading across the Atlantic. It is from this port that the last photograph of Titanic is taken. At 1:30 p.m. the starboard anchor was raised for the last time and the Titanic departed on her first transatlantic crossing, bound for New York. |
