Titanic Honour and Glory Exhibitions

This day in 1945, General Alfred Jodl signed an unconditional surrender at Allied headquarters in Reims, France, to take effect the following day, ending the European conflict of World War II.

On board liners of the White Star Line, including the Titanic, passengers were able to view the repertoire list. The list contained 341 pieces played by the ships orchestra. The list pictured is an original from the Titanic Honour and Glory exhibition collection.

Colourised and high definition of the rare unpublished photograph of the Olympic's starboard bow going through the ocean. The original photograph was taken in June 1929.

From the Titanic Honour and Glory exhibition collection. Rare panel card/book post card of the Cunard Liner 'Carpathia.' The Carpathia under the command of Captain Rostron, came to the rescue of the Titanic's survivors.

Carpathia was 58 miles away from the Titanic's reported position. Captain Rostron turned his ship around, cut heating, lights and gave the Carpathia as much power on her engines as he possibly could. It would take him four hours to reach the Titanic's position, where he would rescue 705 survivors of the Titanic tragedy.

A rare unpublished photograph from the Titanic Honour and Glory exhibition collection. The photograph is from June 1929, which shows the starboard bow of the Titanic's sister ship Olympic in the North Atlantic Ocean.

It was on the starboard bow of the Titanic at 11:40pm, Sunday, April 14th 1912, Titanic collided with a North Atlantic iceberg.

On this 114th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, the photograph of the Olympic, gives an incredible insight into that tragic moment. A moment that changed history, a moment that must have felt incomprehensible for the lookouts and officers and crew on duty.

Our exhibition name Titanic Honour and Glory is very important in all we do. We proudly Honour the Titanic's passengers and crew, those who sadly lost their lives and those who survived. The Glory of the Titanic, as she was the largest, most luxurious and technologicaly advanced ocean liner of the time.

It was an honour to attend this evening's remembrance event. Our display featured a rare selection of Titanic artefacts, including a rare Steiff Bear, which belonged to Titanic's senior sixth engineer, William Young Moyes.

On this 114th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. We remember this tragic event and the lives
lost after the ship collided with an iceberg at 11:40pm on Sunday April 14th, and sinking at 02:20am on Monday April 15th 1912.

We are honoured to remember 23 year old Stirling man William Moyes. This report from the Stirling Observer of 23rd April 1912, describes the senior sixth engineer on board the vessel. Mr Moyes as former pupil of Stirling High School and Captain of Stirling County Rugby Fooball Club.

Looking forward to working with visiting Primary Schools at Cannock Library today. Bringing history to life where the past is always present.
