Titanic Engine Color

The aft most compartment is the turbine engine room that contained the Parsons' low-pressure turbine, thrust blocks for the propeller shafts of the reciprocating engines, and the ship's two main condensers that turned exhaust steam back into boiler feedwater. Ahead of that compartment was the reciprocating engine room with the two reciprocating engines, the feedwater heaters, the ship's.

In this video there are a number of updates to the engines, the most notable of course being the addition of two potential colour scheme changes focused on t.

I'm not aware of any photos extant of the boiler or engine rooms on the Titanic, but I recall a photo of the engines being assembled in the Britannic which appears on page 118 of McCaughan's "The Birth Of The Titanic" The ladders going up out of the boiler rooms were, to my knowladge, located on the port side.

For those with a pioneering spirit and a thirst for adventure, Jooble website unveils a treasure trove of opportunities for marine engineer jobs abroad.

Below are the paint mixes used on Art Braunschweiger's model. These are the scale equivalents of the colors I determined to have been used on Titanic based on the consensus of my own and other TRMA members' research. When mixing paints, I used one eyedropper filled up to the same amount for each drop indicated below. All colors on the actual ship were in gloss paint, but were finished flat.
