"titanic"s maiden voyage began on wednesday, 10 april 1912. following the embarkation of the crew, the passengers began arriving at 9:30 a.m., when the london and south western railway's boat train from london waterloo station reached southampton terminus railway station on the quayside, alongside "titanic"s berth. the large number of third class passengers meant they were the first to board, with first and second class passengers following up to an hour before departure. stewards showed them to their cabins, and first class passengers were personally greeted by captain smith. third class passengers were inspected for ailments and physical impairments that might lead to their being refused entry to the united states – a prospect the white star line wished to avoid, as it would have to carry anyone who failed the examination back across the atlantic. in all, 920 passengers boarded "titanic" at southampton – 179 first class, 247 second class, and 494 third class. additional passengers were to be picked up at cherbourg and queenstown.
