Which shipmaker built the RMS Olympic for the White Star Line during the early 20th century?
RMS Olympic RMS "Olympic" ( ) was a British transatlantic ocean liner, the lead ship of the White Star Line's trio of "Olympic"-class liners. Unlike her younger sister ships, "Olympic" had a long career, spanning 24 years from 1911 to 1935. This included service as a troopship during the First World War, which gained her the nickname "Old Reliable". "Olympic" returned to civilian service after the war and served successfully as an ocean liner throughout the 1920s and into the first half of the 1930s, although increased competition, and the slump in trade during the Great Depression after 1930, made her operation increasingly unprofitable.
SS Noordam (1902) SS "Noordam (1902) was a 12,531 ton passenger liner of the Holland America Line, sailing mostly between Rotterdam and New York. It was built by Harland and Wolff. In April 1912 she alerted "RMS Titanic" to ice early into its ill-fated maiden voyage. She operated during part of World War I, but hit mines on two occasions and was laid up until the war ended. In 1923 she was chartered by Swedish American Line and operated as SS "Kungsholm until 1926 when she reverted to Holland America as "Noordam". She was scrapped in 1927.
