Hi Tom,
You may recal some time ago i asked you how longTitanic would have tken to do her Atlantic crossing and also at which pier she would have docked at.You kindly gave me the relevant details but with xmas and my granchildren usuing my machine i have missplaced them. I wonder if i could ask you to post or PM them again. Thanks Booty. Trust you and your familyhave a good xmas and a prosperous new year

Hi, Booty,

I am having a very good christmas and I hope you are too.

She would have taken 7 days but had she not sunk she would have probably landed in New York on the 6th night of her maiden voyage.

She was due to land at the White Star pier, which was pier 59.
Before Carpathia landed at her pier she stopped at Titanic's to lower 13 of Titanic's lifeboats.

She would have left New York on 20th April 1912. Her second voyage from Southampton, Uk would have started on May 1st 1912.

It is very unlikely that Titanic would ever have won the Blue Ribbon. Titanic's rival RMS Mauretania had the Blue Ribbon from 1907-1929 and come very close to geting it back after she lost it.

Hi Tom,
Yes just the ticket thanks again. As soon as i get the photo's back from Southampton i'll scan copies and let you have them. In the meantime carry on having a good xmas and a good new year thanks again Booty :pint: :pint: :pint:

Hi again Tom,
i wonder if you can clarify two points for me, 1, am i right in thinking White Star launched it's first Atlantic steamer in 1870 ? 2, That Edward Harland was a Yorkshire man and that he was in fact born in Scarborough in 1831.I have most facts but these two i'm not quite sure of, just wondering if you can help.
