Not sure if these have been identified before, but I notice that Olympic had a series of either drainage ports or mooring pipes running down port/starboard of B-deck. Unique to her due to the alterations to that deck on Titanic.

Jonathan:
Those had been identified before but they are auxiliary mooring ports.
The photo below shows one of these ports. You can see that it has a cleat above it to belay a line.

Regards,
Bob Read

Thanks Bob. I was minimally aware of these, but I did not associate them at first with the other's pipes that do not appear alongside shell doors.
