The Titanic's older sister, RMS Olympic had a long and colorful career with the White Star Line. Launched on October 20th, 1910, the Olympic was the largest ship in the world by far. The Olympic was a favorite Atlantic ocean liner long after the Titanic disaster, sailing for over two decades. She more than lived up to the dream envisioned by her builders and easily lived up to her nickname, Old Reliable.
