'Identify This Picture' Part 9

As usual, you must name the part/room of the ship which is in the picture, the ship's name, as well as the cruise line which it belongs to.

Let the game begin!

Jason...is this a ship that is still in service or one of the past? It looks like a much older ship by the looks of the lifeboats and pool deck.

Wow, Jason!

I can't believe you found pictures of her...

The minute I saw the shot, I recognized her. Yes, the ship that my maternal grandmother sailed, when she arrived in the United States, on July 11, 1905, and my maternal grandfather sailed, arriving a few minths later, on September 25, 1905.

Strangely, they did not know each other, at the time...it was a mere coincidence that they emigrated here on the same ship.

They told me all about the ship, and I recognized your photo from their stories.

No doubt about it!

It's Holland America's Rijndam

P.S. First part is true! Both came on the Rijndam.

First thing I thought of was SS France, previous to Norway.

It's not SS France (funnel doesn't match), but it definitely has the old-world ship feeling. How about some hints, Jason. Like, is this ship still in service?
