My wife and I visited this ship in 2018. The ships interior was fitted with the same styles of the titanic. So if you visit you will get a glimpse as to what the Titanic would have looked like, albeit much more luxurious.

The SS Nomadic deserves far more attention and fame like her bigger sisters, small or not; she’s a symbolic piece of White Star’s bygone era!

Just came across your fabulous series. I was in Belfast in March 2013. Unfortunately Nomadic was not open yet and I was really disappointed because I was dying to see her. Lifelong Titanic buff who has been a huge Thomas Andrews fan for long as I can remember and I’m dying to step aboard this amazing little piece of history. Thank you for the video and I don’t blame you for buying stuff at the gift shop because I was surprised I didn’t buy more when I was in there either. Planning a trip back in 2025 so I can see all of the stuff I didn’t get to. I love Belfast.

Your videos are so enjoyable. You have a great combination of information...story telling...and humor that just draws me in. Watching your videos is like having someone tell me a story. Your description of everything paints incredible pictures for the eyes of my mind, and I can imagine the events happening as you tell the story. Also, being on location where so many of these events took place is really cool to see. I've been interested in the Titanic and all her surrounding stories ever since she was discovered in 1985. Thank you for producing this series. I can't wait to see what else you come out with.

Informative video! I was fortunate to go to the museum in Belfast & see Nomadic around 2015. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to go in her 🥲. I had no idea about her history or that she had only recently returned to Belfast. I’m kind of surprised that she wasn’t saved sooner with the Titanic movie & Robert Ballard finding the ship in the 80s.

@BeyondTheTitanic I'm thrilled you're still making videos. The deep dives into the lives of the passengers are enthralling. One of my favorite stories I've heard from titanic is that of the drunk pastry chef. It's a little more lighthearted (all things considered), which is nice once in a while. Maybe someday I'll get to hear you tell it and likely learn a lot more!

@BeyondTheTitanic Жыл бұрын

I had a section on the Traffic in the video but unfortunately had to cut it out to save on video time. During the Second World War she fell into enemy hands and was eventually torpedoed by the British Navy in 1941. The Germans tried to salvage her wreck but she was too badly damaged and was sent for scrap.

@BeyondTheTitanic Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment. Whilst I can not be certain as to why they have not reinstated her mast, I assume it is probably down to cost and practicality. They have not recreated her bridge fully either. I suppose some things were deemed to not be needed for her restoration.

Can she run?

@BeyondTheTitanic Жыл бұрын

So her original engines were removed many years ago. During her restoration the idea of refitting her with a working propulsion system was explored. However it was deemed too expensive. There were also concerns around the legal requirements restoring her as a working, functioning vessel and that it may distract her restoration away from what she once was. A modern engine with modern sailing regulations would have resulted in her restoration being unauthentic to her original 1911 condition. I hope this answers your question.
