Stock Photo - The new giant French ocean liner which made a record Atlantic crossing in four days, three hours: the Normandie - a diagrammatic drawing of her interior construction by G. H. Davis in the Illustrated London News. Also shown are comparisons with Big Ben and the National Gallery to get some sense of the ship's enormous size. Also the turbo-electric machinery which was, according to this illustration, 'sufficiently powerful to drive the whole of the underground railway system of London during rush hours.'
