The RMS Olympic was a British ocean liner that operated from 1911 to 1935. It was the lead ship of the Olympic class ocean liners built by the White Star Line, famously known for its sister ships RMS Titanic and HMHS Britannic. Olympic was the largest and most luxurious ship in the world at the time of its launch. The ship had a long and successful career, serving as a passenger liner, troopship, and hospital ship during World War I. Notably, Olympic had a reputation for its safety and reliability, earning the nickname "Old Reliable." The ship had a series of upgrades and modifications throughout its service life, including a lengthening in 1912 and a conversion to oil fuel in 1919. Despite a few incidents, such as a collision with a warship in 1911 and a collision with a German U-boat in 1918, Olympic maintained a strong safety record. The ship was eventually retired in 1935 and scrapped in 1937. RMS Olympic holds a significant place in maritime history as one of the largest and most iconic ships of its era, alongside its sister ships Titanic and Britannic.
