She was designed as a liner on the transatlantic service from her home port of Southampton, UK, to New York, USA, 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 to be 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, Queen Elizabeth 2 was also the last oil-fired passenger steamship to cross the Atlantic in scheduled liner service. Queen Elizabeth 2 had no running mate and never ran a year-round weekly transatlantic express service to New York. Queen Elizabeth 2 did, however, continue the Cunard tradition of regular scheduled transatlantic crossings every year of her service life. Queen Elizabeth 2 retired from active Cunard service on 27 November 2008. She was acquired by Istithmar, the investment company of Dubai World, which planned to begin conversion of the vessel to a floating hotel moored at the Palm Jumeirah, Dubai. In July 2012, Istithmar announced that conversion would take about 18 months. Seacraft Gallery brings you the highest-quality model ships found anywhere.
