  • Built by John Brown & Company in Clydebank, Scotland, Queen Mary, along with RMS Queen Elizabeth, were built as part of Cunard's planned two-ship weekly express service between Southampton, Cherbourg and New York. The two ships were a British response to the express superliners built by German, Italian and French companies in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Queen Mary was the flagship of the Cunard Line from May 1936 until October 1946 when she was replaced in that role by Queen Elizabeth.
    Queen Mary sailed on her maiden voyage on 27 May 1936 and captured the Blue Riband in August of that year..........
    Here is the photographic record of this mighty vessel from construction to Maiden voyage.

    RMS OLYMPIC, TITANIC, BRITANNIC & AQUITANIA are the best looking ships of all time! They should of never been scrapped they should of been preserved for future generations!

    Incredibly interesting shots of photo chronicles of the construction of a unique vessel, its interiors and the first voyage! For some reason I remembered the film about Titanic ... The genius music for each part of the video fascinates! .. Thank you very much, dear Nigel! Have a good day! Hugs and kisses!

      Доброе утро, дорогая Наташа. Я так рад, что вам понравилось это видео на этом великолепном корабле. В отличие от «Титаника», она все еще на плаву сегодня, как отель в Калифорнии! С наилучшими пожеланиями, объятиями и поцелуями! Найджел

    Extremely interesting photos Nigel. What a magnificent ship the Queen Mary was, and still is! I would have loved to have traveled on board her, but the SS Oriana was my substitute in 1964. Thanks for the great information about her! Wishing you a pleasant day, my friend :D Cheers, Len :)

    • @NigelFowlerSutton

      Good day Len and thanks for your visit and interesting comment. I remember seeing the SS. Oriana moored in Southampton. We were there to see off my Canadian Uncle and Aunt who were travelling to New York. I was quite young at the time, but she made an impression on me, and I remember thinking that she looked much grander than the ship my relations were on!! Have a good evening! Felicitations! Nigel

    Nigel, now what's the meaning of RMS again? I could look it up, I know, but I also wanted to say thanks for your beautiful videos over these past few years and I'm looking forward to all those yet to come, in what I hope for you and all is a happy new year, in which the insanity we see around us and all feel inside us to some degree or another is healed in all.

    • @NigelFowlerSutton

      Thank you very much for your great comment. I am really pleased you enjoy looking at my videos. Much appreciated....
      RMS stands for Royal Mail Ship! This designation dates back to 1840 when a seagoing ship carried mail under contract to the British Royal Mail. Seen as a mark of quality and a competitive advantage, as the mail had to be delivered on time.....
      The latest Queen Mary II also bears RMS .....

    Лайнер "Королева Мария" гордость Британии. Ему уделено много места в википедии. Найджел, с Новым годом. Хотел бы, чтобы ты проводил время за праздничным столом.

      Большое спасибо, Александр. Кроме того, ссылка на видео, которую вы мне отправили, была отличной. Мне очень понравилась эта песня. Это облегчило мое довольно мрачное настроение! Хорошего праздника! Найджел
