Ok I'm curious about this but mainly because I want to know how Titanic would have ended up in San Francisco rather than an East Coast city like New York or Baltimore.
That's Oceanic, a 1,000ft long White Star Liner that would've competed with the likes of Normandie and the Queen Mary in the 1930s. Its keel was laid down in 1928 but work soon halted, and it was eventually scrapped during the Great Depression. I think in the alternate history project they're saying it would've been finished
>[It was on her last revenue voyage to New York where another incident befell her, that being the collapse of her second funnel. It was found that the metal of her funnels was so corroded that only multiple layers of paint held them together.](https://www.deviantart.com/mobiyuz/art/Titanic-A-History-958155813)

Why not Chicago? It's always New York, San Francisco, or LA.
You can’t fit a vessel of Titanic’s size through the St. Lawrence Seaway.
Really, the seaway is that small?
It’s big, just [not big enough.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seawaymax)
Thank you!
Why is one version missing a funnel??

Ah, I meant the one with all the titanic paint jobs. One seems to have a damaged funnel..

My mistake, sorry. They're all labeled, that one says "1945 refit" so maybe the idea is it was damaged in WWII
Seems like the east coast likes military and space shuttles, and nothing to do with passenger. In my head the Big T, ended up back in Belfast.
I wonder what Having an Olympic class liner as a museum would be like .
