U.S.S. TEXAS - BB35

Ship Tours

Thanks to Ship's Manager Barry Ward, Rusty Bloxom (Ship's Historian) and John Ferguson (former Ship's Historian and Restoration Planner) for providing access to the ship and guide duties.  Their time and knowledge made taking the photos possible.

The links shown below will take you to either Walking or Systems tours.  While they share many of the photos, some are only found on one or the other.  The tours also present information and photos in two very different ways.  Because of this, you may want to go through both:

 

	Click on the image at the left to go to sets of general exterior photos that are not part of the tours.
Walking Tour	Click on the image to the left to go to a Walking Tour of the ship.  This tour contains a very large number of photos keyed to deck plans that allow you to look down corridors and around spaces as if you were walking through the ship.  It contains some system details, but not as much as the other tour.
Systems Tour	Click on the image to the left to go to a Systems Tour of the ship.  This contains photo galleries organized by function and provides more detailed information on separate ship systems.  However, it does not give a good sense of the overall ship layout as does the Walking Tour.
