Why this kit matters

The RMS Olympic was a British ocean liner and the lead ship of the White Star Line's Olympic class of liners, which included the Titanic and Britannic. Unlike her ill-fated sisters, the Olympic enjoyed a long and successful career, including service as a troop transport (HMT Olympic) during World War I. She earned the nickname "Old Reliable" for her dependable service. Building this model allows one to explore the story of a famous ship that survived and served through a major conflict.

This model kit allows you to recreate a detailed replica of the Olympic as she appeared during her service as a troop transport. Building this kit provides an engaging and challenging experience, perfect for those deeply interested in naval history and modelling. The finished model makes an impressive display piece, showcasing the design and wartime modifications of this famous ocean liner.
