It is replicated on a 1:35 scale and boasts some of the main features of the ship including the lifeboats, propellers, engine, cranes, bridge, main staircase and chimneys. Fitted with 300 metres of LED lights that are programmed to highlight different areas of the ship in line with the stories being told, the model is a must-see for visitors.
The enhanced focus on personal stories encapsulated in The Pursuit of Dreams theme adds a new dimension to the ship that has captivated people from around the world for 111 years.

Dating from 1911, this historic ship ferried first- and second-class passengers to the Titanic. Over four decks, it tells the intriguing stories of her passengers and the ups and downs of her dramatic career, which also spanned two world wars.
