Picture Carpathia

• Picture Notes

  The 13,555 GRT liner was built by Swan Hunter at Wallsend-on-Tyne in 1903 for Cunard for their Liverpool to Boston service, but after her first run, she was transferred to the Trieste to New York route for the next 11 years. Carpathia picked up the Titanic's distress signals early on 16 April 1912 and was first on the scene to rescue survivors."
  
  The image, which I found on the Internet, is undated and is credited to www.postalmuseum.si.edu/titanic/carpathia.htm. It shows Carpathia arriving with the survivors of the Titanic sinking.
