Simply stunning footage filmed by the White Star Line as a promotional film about the Olympic during the early 1920s.  We tour the ship in great detail, exploring all its features as she journeys from New York to Southampton over the course of 16 minutes. Originally silent, the audio has been recreated, including the ship's bugler playing the "Roast Beef of Old england" to announce dinner and the Nomadic's whistle.

For those who think it is not the Olympic, but Titanic, due to some 'switch' please read the facts here: http://www.williammurdoch.net/article...
