The USS Texas is on my list of things to see if and when it is once again open to the public.
Though not really a true Super Dreadnought due to her 2 X triple expansion steam engines, she remains the only surviving Dreadnought battleship and the only US battleship ship to fight in all three WWII theatres, Africa, Europe, and the Pacific.
The triple expansion engines are, perhaps, the most interesting attraction to me but I do not know if tours include the engine rooms.
Anyone know?
