Yes, there were. Because of the rapidly flowing water that was filling up the compartments. The captain ordered the bulkhead doors to be closed. People in the boiler rooms and other parts of the ship, like where the cars were stored, had to escape as quickly as possible. Some made it out, some didn't and were locked in the filling up rooms. They also locked third class passagers on the bottom of the ship to make sure that the first and the second class had a lifeboat.
