 Three Catholic Priests and a Seminarian are making their way toward the places where they would board the "unsinkable" RMS TITANIC in the coming days.Incredibly, the great ship was only completed to-day..Soon - on the 10th of April,  she will commence boarding passengers.In the interim she must take on fuel ( 5,892 Tons of coal), crew and do sea trials. Then she must take on huge quantities of crockery, glassware, cutlery, food and drink and get the crew organised and settled into those routines which make for efficient action and perfect service.

The fitting out of TITANIC has involved fitting 29 Boilers, the massive engines and turbines, 200 miles of electric cable , 20 lifeboats (including four with collapsible canvas sides). Over 3,000,000 rivets have been used in her construction.
