If Titanic had not sunk she probablywould have mirrored Olympic's career- troop transport or hospital ship during the great war, converted to black oil in the 1920s, and scrapped in the 1930s.
The interesting question would be what would Titanic's survival done to the health of White Star- The company bet a huge amount on the three sisters- one sunk on her maiden voyage, another never made it to passenger service. Only Olympic had a passenger career. I believe if Titanic had not sunk, there would not have been a Cunard buy out, and there might be a White Star today. Financially, White Star would have been much better off, and a stronger competitor to Cunard in the 1920s and 30s. As it is, the company lost big when Titanic sank, and again when Brittanic was lost leaving Olympic. as the only north Atlantic run steamer for White Star which could compete with Mauretania and Aquitania in the immediate post war era. |

I think that if the titanic did not sink back then it. I think that she would have made more than $350,000,000 more than it actually did she certainly would have gained routine customers.
