38 Kamares is delighted to offer: A REAL COLLECTOR'S SPECIAL. Waterline model made by German Model Makers CM 'MV QUEEN ELIZABETH II' CUNARD LINE CRUISE SHIP BUILT BY JOHN BROWN & CO, CLYDEBANK 1968. 70 327 TON. 293 METRES. 28 KNOTS. 1892 PASSENGERS. THIS IS A NEW MODEL WITH BOX & MEASURES approx. 23.5 CM SHOWING QE2 after her 1987 refit. Queen Elizabeth 2, often referred to simply as QE2, is an ocean liner built for the Cunard Line which was operated by Cunard as both a transatlantic liner and a cruise ship from 1969 to 2008. She was designed for the transatlantic service from her home port of Southampton to New York, and was named after the earlier Cunard liner RMS Queen Elizabeth . She served as the flagship of the line from 1969 until succeeded by RMS Queen Mary 2 in 2004. Designed in Cunard's then headquarters and regional offices in Liverpool and Southampton respectively, and built in Clydebank, Scotland, she was considered the last of the great transatlantic ocean liners until the construction of the Queen Mary 2 was announced. Before she was refitted with a diesel power plant in 1986/87, QE2 was also the last oil-fired passenger steamship in scheduled liner service. QE2 had no running mate and never ran a year-round weekly transatlantic express service to New York as Cunard had with the Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth.
