Launched in 1934 and entering service in 1936, the RMS Queen Mary was one of the most celebrated ocean liners of the 20th century. Built by John Brown & Company in Clydebank, Scotland, she was a symbol of British maritime pride and the flagship of the Cunard Line. Known for her graceful lines, luxurious Art Deco interiors, and powerful engines, the Queen Mary quickly became a favourite among celebrities, royalty, and transatlantic travellers. At her peak, she held the coveted Blue Riband for the fastest crossing of the Atlantic, reflecting her exceptional speed and engineering.
During World War II, the Queen Mary was transformed into a troopship, famously painted grey and nicknamed the “Grey Ghost.” She played a vital role in transporting hundreds of thousands of Allied soldiers across dangerous waters, often carrying over 15,000 troops in a single voyage—more than any other ship at the time. After the war, she returned to civilian service, continuing her role as a premier ocean liner until the rise of air travel gradually reduced demand for sea crossings.
In 1967, after more than three decades of service, the Queen Mary was retired and permanently docked in Long Beach, California, where she remains today as a floating hotel, museum, and historical landmark. Her legacy endures not only as a marvel of maritime engineering but also as a vessel that bridged eras of luxury travel and wartime resilience—an enduring icon of the golden age of ocean liners.
