    They just omitted the fake funnel...


    "Three of Titanic’s funnels were what you’d expect, connecting directly down to the boilers. The fourth, furthest aft, was not strictly a fake; but instead of the boiler exhaust, it enclosed the various exhausts for the galleys and service machinery (assorted donkey boilers and secondary plant)

    The designers evidently thought that a run of four funnels looked better than “three, plus a collection of pipework”, and put a funnel casing of the same size and shape as the main ones around the service vents."
