Interesting look at marine boiler operation. It's a delicate balance to make changes for the amount of steam needed - sprayer plate, return flow, blower setting, etc. Nice basic instruction for those involved in historic ship or locomotive restoration.

Coal fired boilers and waste of all kind being dumped overboard would never be allowed. It might be possible to build a modern ship made to look like the Titanic - fake boiler stacks...

@WiredrawnMurder45 I do not advocate raising the Titanic - another poster proposes to do so. But I don't have a problem with artifacts being recovered from a wreck site. It fatalities meant that it was untouchable, then any building that burned with fatalities should also be demolished and turn...
@SuperJAmEzEr QM2 can achieve up to 30 knots if she powers up her gas turbines in addition to her diesel generators. SSUS did 5 knots better than that (and through a storm!) when she won the eastbound Blue Riband.
