However, it was relatively small port and unlike Southampton and New York, where specially enlarged piers and socks had been created to cater for the <i>Titanic</i> and her sister ship, Cherboug could not accommodate the largest of liners. So the <i>Titanic</i> had to drop anchor outside the harbor while passengers and cargo were ferried out by two purpose built White Star tenders, <i>Nomadic </i>and <i>Traffic.</i></p> <p>The <i>Titanic</i> arrived in Cherboug at 6:35pm, local time, having made no attempt to make up the hour lost at Southampton. Twenty-two passengers (15 first class and 7 second-class) had been using the <i>Titanic</i> as noting more than a cross-Channel ferry and duly alighted at this, their port of destination. Their crossing had cost them 1 pound 10 shillings for first class and 1 pound for second-class. The passengers were replaced by 142 first class passengers, 30 second-class and 102 third class passengers, all of whom made the six-hour rail trip from the Gare St Lazare in paris aboard the Train Transatlantique.</p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p>  <p align="center"><font size="-1"><a href="hchron.htm"><i><b>Chronology </b></i></a></font></p> <p align="center"><font size="-1"><i><b>The Making of History</b></i><br> | <a href="owners.htm">Owners</a> | <a href="gdesign.htm">A Grand Design </a>| <a href="construc1.htm">Construction</a> | Sister Ships - <a href="olympic.htm">Olympic</a> and <a href="britanni.htm">Britannic</a> | <br> | <a href="segreg.htm">Strict Segregation</a> | <a href="outdt.htm">Outdated Lifeboat regulations </a>| <a href="aura.htm">The Aura of Invincibility</a> |<br> <br> | <a href="launch.htm"> Launch</a> | <a href="specs.htm">Specifications</a> |</font></p> <p align="center"><font size="-1"><i><b>Leaving for the New World</b></i><br> | <a href="south.htm">Southampton</a> | <a href="newysoth.htm">Southampton - The New York and a Near Miss</a> | <a href="cherboug.htm">Cherbourg</a> | <a href="queens.htm">Queenstown</a> |<a href="prov.htm"> Provisions</a> |</font></p> <p align="center"><font size="-1"><i><b>Passenger Lists<br> </b></i>| <a href="first.htm">First Class</a> | <a href="second.htm">Second Class</a> | <a href="third.htm">Third Class</a> |<a href="alphalst.htm"> Alphabtical list</a></font> |<font size="-1"> <a href="crew.htm">Crew</a> | <a href="band.htm">The Band </a>|</font></p> <p align="center"><font size="-1"><i><b>Lifeboat Lists</b></i><br> | <a href="lifeboat1.htm">Lifeboats 1- 3</a> | <a href="lifeboat2.htm">Lifeboats 4 - 6</a> |<a href="lifeboat3.htm"> Lifeboats 7-9</a> | <a href="lifeboat4.htm">Lifeboats 10-12</a> |<a href="lifeboat5.htm"> Lifeboats 13 -16</a> |<a href="collapsi.htm"> Collapsibles</a> |</font></p> <p align="center"><font size="-1"><i><b>Aftermath</b></i><br> | <a href="american.htm">American Inquiry</a> |<br> | <a href="steel.htm">Causes - An extract from February 1995 Edition of Popular Mechanic</a> |</font></p> <p align="center"><font size="-1"><i><b><a href="remberan.htm">Remembrance</a></b></i></font></p> <p align="center"><font size="-1"><i><b>Facts and Figures<br> </b></i>| <a href="101faq.htm">Harland and Wolff's 101 Answers to the most asked questions about the RMS Titanic</a> |<i><b> </b></i></font></p>  <table width="75%" border="0" align="center" background="../images/mtel.jpg"> <tr> <td width="15%"> </td> <td width="71%"> <div align="center"> <div align="center"> <table width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td width="49%"> <h3 align="center"><font color="#FF6600"><a href="history.htm">History</a></font></h3> </td> <td width="51%"> <h3 align="center"><font color="#FF6600"><a href="../evidence/evidence.htm">Evidence</a></font></h3> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="49%"> <h3 align="center"><font color="#FF6600"><a href="../ackno.htm">Acknowledgements</a></font></h3> </td> <td width="51%"> <h3 align="center"><font color="#FF6600"><a href="../links.htm">Links</a></font></h3> </td> </tr> </table> <div align="center"></div> <div align="center"> <h3><font color="#FF6600"><a href="../html.htm">HTML editors Review</a></font></h3> </div> </div> </div> </td> <td width="14%"> </td> </tr> </table> </body>  <center> <div> <br> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="http://ad.broadcaststation.net/ads/show_ad.php?width=300&height=250&cache=0"></script> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="http://ad.broadcaststation.net/ads/show_ad.php?width=300&height=250"></script> </div> <br> <br> </center> </html>
