Before and after - Titanic engine
The engines of the RMS Titanic were a combination of two massive triple-expansion reciprocating steam engines and a low-pressure Parsons turbine, powering the ship’s three propellers. The reciprocating engines drove the port and starboard propellers, while the turbine powered the center propeller, using excess steam from the other engines.

Fueled by steam from 29 boilers, the engines produced a total of 46,000 horsepower, allowing Titanic to reach a maximum speed of about 23 knots (43 km/h). Despite their power, the engines lacked the ability to reverse quickly, contributing to the ship’s inability to avoid the iceberg on April 14, 1912.

Before and after - The Titanic's cargo hatches
The Titanic's cargo hatches were large openings on the ship’s decks used for loading and unloading cargo. They were located primarily on the foredeck and aft deck, providing access to the cargo holds below. The hatches were covered with wooden or steel covers and secured to protect goods from water and weather. During the sinking, these hatches likely contributed to water ingress as the bow submerged.

Before and after - The Titanic's steam whistles
were mounted on the ship’s forward and aft funnels and were used for signaling and communication. They were operated by steam from the ship’s boilers and emitted a deep, powerful sound that could be heard for miles.

The main whistle, located on the first funnel, was blown regularly to announce departures and warn other ships. During the Titanic’s final moments, the whistles were reportedly used to signal distress before the ship lost steam power.

Before and after - The Second-Class Enclosed Promenade on the Port Side
The Second-Class Enclosed Promenade on the Port Side of the Titanic was a designated area for second-class passengers to enjoy outdoor views while being sheltered from the elements.
Located on B Deck, it provided a comfortable space with large windows, allowing passengers to walk, sit, and socialize while protected from wind and sea spray. This promenade was a notable feature, offering second-class travelers a luxurious experience compared to other ships of the time.

Before and after - The Titanic's davits
were wellin-type davits, designed to lower lifeboats into the water. The ship had 16 davits, each capable of handling multiple lifeboats, but only 20 lifeboats were on board—far fewer than the davits could accommodate. These davits played a crucial role during the evacuation on April 15, 1912, though many lifeboats were launched partially filled.
