Just a regular guy writing whatever comes to his mind.

E

Twilight and her friends are transported to earth in the far past where they try to survive the worst maritime disaster in American history, and its not the Titanic.

I thought I would make this, because most people don’t know that this ship even exists, or what happened to it, I’m not going to say it’s name, you’ll see it in the story.

Could use a bit of editing and I do wish the chapters were a little longer but solid so far.

Hmm.... "Worst maritime disaster in American history"? Could we be talking about the Sultana?

Dreadnought

I dunno... They have trains. It's not a huge leap in logic from trains to paddlewheels.

I never saw anything other than a classic gallion or other sail boat in the show.

Never said you did. I'm just saying that the idea, when they see the steam engine in it, shouldn't be all that strange.

Probably, a steam engine powering a boat will still be a new innovation to them.

I'm not saying it won't be, I'm just saying it wouldn't be a huge surprise. "Oh, yeah, why didn't we think of that?"

I just finished my Eagle Scout project, I’ll post a link soon.

Does anyone know how to put a picture on here, every time I try, it doesn’t work

The picture can’t be to big

Oof. The SS Sultana steamboat. The 8th deadliest maritime disaster in history. Sadly overlooked at the time due to John Wilkes Booth (the man who killed Lincoln) being shot the previous day and the end of the civil war.

This is an interesting idea for a story. The SS Sultana is often overlooked, and I like how you incorporated the ponies to explore it. And very belated congrats on the Eagle Scout!

Thanks, glad you like it, feel free to check out my other story.

It's definitely on the list. I like the idea that Equestria takes place in the future, so I look forward to seeing how it all plays out.

Interesting! The SS Sultana is a very interesting premise. I'm going to college to study history, so historical fics like this interest me a lot. Though admittedly, i jumped the gun because when I read "The worst maritime disaster..." My mind instantly went to the Wilhelm Gustloff. But then I saw American History and was relieved that the ponies didn't have to spend time with a bunch of Nazis. I am hopping you plan to continue writing this as this story has a lot of my attention.

I’ll probably continue this after I finish my other story. Feel free to read my other story.
