thanks for sharing another great little vid - giving us a glimpse into the past - i find anything remotely related to Titanic and her sisters interesting, i learnt of Nomadic's existence a number of years back and how fantastic she has lasted this long, albeit had changes made to her, great to see her back in Belfast - Nomadic's restoration team have spent a lot of time and effort to get her looking close to as she did in her prime, so glad the floor was not overlooked, that must of cost a fortune to replicate - it's a shame there are no engines, my guess is efforts were made to keep her running with more cost effective adaptations - i especially like the effort made to have some human interaction with the waiter behind the bar - a nice touch - something that is becoming widely used on these type of exhibits and very worth the effort - i really must visit one day !
Thank you Pete for your comments. I also have an interest in all things Titanic related & ever since I heard that nomadic was coming back to Belfast, I followed her restoration patiently waiting to see her in all her glory. I wasn’t disappointed & it gives you the feeling of being on Titanic. Please check out my other videos, such as the Thompson dry dock, & titanic hotel for more Titanic related videos.
Hi Colin have just come across your Nomadic video BRILLIANT.My Wife and I visited the Nomadic in 2014 (The Titanic story is passion of mine) on a visit to see family in Belfast so to cut a very long story short we ended up donating the brass bell and bell pull and also a ships inclinometer which I had at home to the then Nomadic Preservation Society.It was just a fleeting glance but it is so nice to see them on display.MANY THANKS.
What a nice story & gesture on your part!!. I like to see anything Titanic related myself, sorry it was only a fleeting glance but it must be great to know they are on display. Thanks for the nice words.
Colin, I just found this. I was there in 2013 but I think she was as closed when I was there or at didn’t have enough time. I was bummed. Will have to visit next time. It’s the last living design by Thomas Andrews. ❤
You have to buy a ticket for titanic belfast now to gain access as it’s included in the ticket. Well worth a visit to step aboard a piece of white star history.
@@ColinM_RUclips That's good to know. My best friend and I are planning a trip for 2025 and what I really want is just more time to see everything I want to. It was a dream come true to visit the first time that I was trying to absorb it all but there's still so much Titanic stuff I missed. Especially all the Andrews memorials and history that I want to see.
@Brooke Davis Make sure to visit the Titanic Hotel to see the drawing rooms & where the s.o.s. Message was received. I made a video about it on my channel as well as other Titanic related videos if you haven’t seen them already. Do your research beforehand & I’m sure you’ll get to see it all, & you’ll have an amazing time!
It was built alongside Titanic & built to the same design & similar luxurious finishes. It gave passengers a taste of what to expect aboard the Titanic & was often referred to as the mini Titanic.
Nomadic isn't complete. Where's her foremast? How come they never installed it? Sure masts are unnecessary even for tenders but at least include it so Nomadic looks complete
I agree, if you’re going to restore something it needs to be to original specification. My guess it was to do with costs & that it wasn’t included in the budget.

To take passengers to the Olympic and Titanic👍 thanks for showing
Amazing history!
I'm happy to see what they have done to the ship however I'm sad there's no mast
Yes I agree, it needs its mast but also glad she has been restored so people can enjoy her.

@@ColinM_RUclips I’m planning a trip back and we’re planning on staying there. I can’t wait !
Wow I went there just a few days later
I hope the video brought back happy memories for you!
Looks just like titanic. Only smaller

Hi Colin your so right when we were there in 2014 I understand they were hoping to raise around £65000 just for the mast,money was tight.
This shaky black white edit with the white stripes that trys to make the footage look old is kinda annoying.
Sorry it annoys you, but you have a few choices.
1. Skip forward the video
2. Don’t watch it
Thanks for your comment
What does s s mean ? I now r m s mean Royal Mail ship .
Apparently it stands for “Steam ship” Kouichi.
THAT A POOR NOMADIC
But now she's safe and restored in the Hamilton dry dock after 58 years of service
