what happend to Titanic`s sister ships. did they also sink or did they just rot away.

[LostWhiteStarLiners]

@zerxolah The Titanic's older sister, Olympic, served a long and successful career and was eventually sold for scrap. Britannic (the one built after Titanic) served as a hospital ship in WWI and sank after hitting a mine.

[SuperTerminatrix]

it was stupid to sell Olympic for scrap! You know they might could of repainted her to look like the titanic or something or just leave her as is. These ships they have today suck really bad. They look like a double wide floating on a ship hull!!!!! Thumbs up if you agree with me on this

[LostWhiteStarLiners]

@coorsman1962 And that was all a load of hogwash too. It's been proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the two ships were never switched. Some legends just refuse to die.

@theAbeElement Exactly what I was thinking, what if we recreated the contruction site, to recreate the Ship that once was..?? It warms my mind.

@zerxolah just for the record, Olympic was scrapped in either '36 or '39 :) And her interiors sold at auction.

[architecturalabdabs]

@SuperTerminatrix Olympic and Titanic were the same colour anyway.

[hep2jive]

the music notes on the wood panels! wow!

@zerxolah The First Sink Was Caused From A Torpedo And The Second Got Hit By A Mine And The Worlds Longest,Fastest,And Unsinkable Titanic We All Know That It Struck An Iceberg

@KNIGHT19100 - All you have to do is download it straight from YouTube! It's real easy. I use Real Video Downloader. It's free and I use it to download all my favorite YouTube videos.

@stephenvincent1963 - Your grandmother could not have died on the Titanic at the age of 3, because if she had died at the age if 3, she would not have had any children, therefore she would not have any grandchildren either! Think about it.
