R.M.S. Lusitania of the Cunard line. She was not a sister ship of the Titanic and the two ships were quite different mechanically the Lusitania was from-start Turbine driven, the Titanic was mixed reciprocating with a waste heat turbine for extra power. The Lusitania was older, having been built in l907. At the time the Cunard and White Star shipping companies were two separate firms- they later merged. Oh, yes the Lusitania incident occured in l9l5, not l9l7 ./ it did accelerate Us involvement in the War.
