My immigrant ancestors came to America on this ship in 1903. Thanks for posting!
Even modest vessels of this era had such craftsmanship! I'm enjoying each of these videos,thanks for sharing maritime history.
I believe my Grandfather, his sister and parents came over on this boat from Scotland on May 30 1914.
Wonderfull medium sized vessel! Such an elegance!
Amazing
I’d love to be able to step back in time and travel,on these beautiful ships! What an adventure, how exciting !
My mother's family emigrated to USA via NYC on this ship in 1922. Great video, super music, appropos to the twenties.
My grandmother came from Germany to The USA on the SS Columbia. I would like to know more about this ship
My grandfather, John McKelvie, served as a steward aboard the Columbia and several other Anchor Line ships. He was a native of Glasgow and later emigrated to Philadelphia, perhaps with an employee discount fare.
My grandmother and two of her sisters all sailed to the USA on the Columbia. Oddly they all sailed on different dates, from 1907 to 1922. It was a very different world back then.
If only Cruise ships where like this or a vintage cruise line that operated and preserved these beauty's, I think it would be a profitable endeavor.
These are ocean liners not cruise ships
@@theclockperson1046 I understand that, but they could be repurposed for cruise duty because I dont know if you have noticed ocean liners are not the most lucrative these days.
Beautiful!
Hi Georg
Nice video not sure if music matches this time.
love the music choice
Hey George I was wondering if you can do a video on Seeandbee
Right post Scott Joplin style of music...
My Grandma sailed on this ship to the states
Columbia... Very popular name for the ship. Another triple stack S.S. Columbia was built by Harland & Wolff, Belfast, but with initial names Belgic and later Belgenland. www.atlantictransportline.us/content/58Columbia.htm
Plain and modest interior...no luxury there....
Vêtu good video ! The name of music please 😀😀😀
The name of music please ( and good video !)
Castle House Rag
CRIMINAL!!!!
Judging for what's visibly counted there are seven lifeboats at port side and seven at starboard side. Meaning that each lifeboat with a full payload according the the specs provided, each lifeboat would have to accommodate at least 94 passengers (no amount of crew members provided) which we know not to be accurate at the time.
Talk about for the total disregard for the possible lost of lives?
The first ship to use electric light bulbs, and the first use besides Edison's lab of electric light.[7]Columbia was equipped with four watertight bulkheads. It also featured eight metal lifeboats, one wooden lifeboat, one wooden workboat, five life rafts and 537 life preservers.
Have record of my great grandpa and his dad coming on this boat in 1905, with only 54 total passengers, so pretty regardful in terms of their voyage
@@Jwillrocku2 Completely different ship. There were many ships that carried the name "Columbia". The one you are referring to operated mostly between San Francisco and Portland, and sank in 1907 with the loss of 88 lives.
