Title
Atlantic
Description
English: S.S. Atlantic was a transatlantic ocean liner owned by the White Star Line that operated between Liverpool, England, and New York City. On the ship's 19th voyage, 1 April 1873, it ran aground and sank near Terance Bay, Nova Scotia, killing at least 535 people. It remained the deadliest civilian maritime disaster in the Northern Atlantic until the sinking of SS La Bourgogne on 2 July 1898 and the greatest disaster for the White Star Line prior to the loss of Titanic 39 years later.
