(at around 27 mins) When Titanic starts up her engines in Southampton, all the props start simultaneously. The steam has to cycle through the two reciprocating engines and the leftover steam is vented into the low-pressure turbine which powers the center prop. There would have been a time delay between the outer and center props. But the center prop wouldn't have been used in disembarking from port anyway; the center prop was only to be used out in the open sea to augment speed. Any excess steam would have been diverted to the condensers at this time.
