OCEANIC  

IN 1928 A VESSEL WAS LAID DOWN AT HARLAND AND WOLFF WITH THE INTENTION OF HER BEING NAMED 'OCEANIC'. HOWEVER WITHIN WEEKS THE VESSEL WAS CANCELLED AND SHE WAS NEVER BUILT. SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN THE THIRD WHITE STAR VESSEL NAMED 'OCEANIC'. SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN SIMILAR TO 'BRITANNIC', ABOUT 60,000 TONS BUT UNLIKE 'BRITANNIC' SHE WOULD HAVE HAD THREE FUNNELS AS OPPOSED TO TWO. THE ABOVE IMAGE IS AN ARTISTS IMPRESSION OF HOW SHE WOULD HAVE LOOKED IF BUILT.
