Description: Isambard Kingdom Brunel - SS Great Britain is a museum ship and former passenger steamship that was advanced for her time. The largest passenger ship in the world from 1845 to 1853, she was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, for the Great Western Steamship Company's transatlantic service between Bristol and New York City. While other ships had previously been built of iron or equipped with a screw propeller, Great Britain was the first to combine these features in a large ocean-going ship, making her one of the most technologically advanced ships of her time. She was the first iron steamer to cross the Atlantic Ocean, which she did in 1845, in 14 days.
Description: Isambard Kingdom Brunel - SS Great Eastern was an iron hulled steamship designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Powered by both side wheels and a screw propeller, she was by far the largest ship ever built at the time of her 1858 launch, and had the capacity to carry 4,000 passengers from England to Australia without refueling.
Description: Isambard Kingdom Brunel - SS Great Western was a wooden hulled paddle wheel steamship with four masts, the first steamship purpose built for crossing the Atlantic, and the initial unit of the Great Western Steamship Company. Designed by British civil engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Great Western proved satisfactory in service and was the model for all successful wooden Atlantic paddle-steamers. She was capable of making record Blue Riband voyages as late as 1843.
