Product code: Shops Titanic
Belfast, Northern Ireland - The Thompson Graving Dock dock was constructed by the Belfast Harbour Commissioners and opened in 1911. It was designed to accommodate the new mammoth White Star liners Olympic and Titanic. The hulls of each ship were built on slipways at shops the Harland & Wolff shipyard. Following the launch of the hull of the Olympic on 20 October 2010 Titanic on 31 May 1911 each empty hull was fitted out, and moved to the dry-dock for painting of the hull and fitting of the propellers. The dock would be used during the ship's lives when they returned to Belfast for refitting.
