Hi all, The magnificent book on the Queen Elizabeth by Mr. Ringo Varisco. See what is beautiful can be seen the whole book. RMS Queen Elizabeth by Ringo Varisco: Travel | Blurb Books RMS QUEEN ELIZABETH Best regards. Lionel Codus.

I lived in Hong Kong for 19 years and have always been facinated by the QE after seeing her in Sounthampton as a 5 year old. I decided to do some reseach while I was there as I was disappointed that there was no sign of the wreck whern I arrived in 1988. The Hong Kong Public Records Office...

Since I have been absent from the list for a long time I will now share a series of images from my personnel collection of the Queen Elizabeth leaving New York for the Last time on October 28, 1968 for Southampton, England Starboard Side Bow Image 10/28/1968 S. Anderson Collection 2005

Hi everyone, I was wondering if there were any books, websites, etc. that had deckplans of the QE. (larger is better, but I will take what I can get!) Thank you, John

Hi, Here's the updated link to the photos I think Jim Kalafus was talking about on another thread: http://www.cruiseserver.net/travelpage/ships/cu_qe.asp I don't think any ship enthusiast can view the photos on that page without a deep sense of sadness. The photos themselves are...

I myself have a soft spot for the QE as my father was at the launch in 1938 as a baby and recalls seeing it painted in war ship grey at Clydebank when he was a small child prior to its departure in February 1940. He and my mother also recall seeing it at Greenock, one of Olympic's WW1 ports, for...

Greetings to all! I wonder why it is so difficult to find some photographs on the interiors of the RMS Queen Elizabeth after his war service and of the modifications made during her last refit before her retirement. If anybody knows where to find these documents I will be grateful for the...

Hello all: To quote directly from "The Elizabeth" by Niel Potter and Jack Frost, George G. Harrap & Co. Ltd, High Holborn, London, W.C.I., 1965 page 60: "She was first spotted forty miles east of Fire Island, in New York Bay, by the crew of a commercial airliner, still zigzagging, although...

Are there any wreckage left of Queen Elizabeth on the bottom of the Hong Kong harbor or was everything removed after the destuction? What happened to the ship after it was destroyed in the fire?

Out of these two ships, which one was preferred by the traveling public? I'm sure that each ship had it's own following, but one did one liner actual achieve greater financial success than the other? Was there a distinct difference in accomodation, at least in first class, that would have made...

When the poor Queen Elizabeth was burned to a crisp in 1972 under the new name Seawise University, her burned out hulk sat in Hong Kong harbor for a few years. In fact, I think it was in the James Bond film Man With the Golden Gun ,that the charred wreck was used as the hideout for Bond and his...

The stuff I've learnt about the Queen Elizabeth reminded me of when I was a kid and I first became interested in ocean liners. I'm undergoing a kind of personal 'Back to Basics' just now though I think I may have more success than John Major did back in '93. After the discovery of the wreck of...

I was in the Glasgow Museum of Transport today and I see they have made a very interesting acquisition since I was last there in the builder's plate from RMS Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mary's sister ship. The plate is identical to the one still seen on the Queen Mary's sun deck. See the plate...
