There were approximately 500 passengers classified as second class on the Titanic.

The second-class passengers were primarily comprised of professionals, tourists, and immigrants seeking a better life in America.
Titanic (and Olympic) had different kinds of elevators (lifts). According to Bill Sauder: There were two for passengers; two for mail/provisions; and three for food. The hoist between the galley and the Engineer's mess is mechanical, otherwise all are electrical.

Life on the Titanic for third class passengers was anything but ideal. Although they were getting to America just as much as the first class passengers were, The conditions for them were so much worse. The wealthy had luxurious rooms and suites with the most elegant furniture while the third class passengers had very small rooms with bunk beds. the ship was divided by class where the upper deck was mostly for the wealthy and the poor were confined to the lower decks. But the real disaster was when the Titanic hit the iceberg. Because first class passengers were closer to the higher decks, it was more possible for them to reach the lifeboats than the third class passengers. There's even evidence to say that ship crew locked the lower class below decks using gates within the ship. The third class passengers on the Titanic had very little comforts on the ship and many were not even given the chance to try to survive.
