What notable White Star Line ships were present in the River Lagan to witness Titanics launch?
Olympic, Nomadic and Traffic. Delivery of Olympic to her owners coincided with the launch of the new hull, and she was used to transport the officials and distinguished guests of the White Star Line to her registered homeport of Liverpool after the completion of the launching ceremony. The new tenders Nomadic and Traffic were designed to service Olympic and Titanic when they began service to France and were kept on hand in Belfast to help celebrate the launch of Titanic and transport the luminaries to Olympic.
