***Pictures and Stories of QM2 requested***
« on: Feb 28, 2013, 12:34 AM »
Howdy Fellow Enthusiasts!

I am calling out to all of you for some assistance. We (Mom and I) are working on a title all about the QM2. Mom is a journalist, so I've lucked out there! We would love to incorporate past travelers experiences with the ship; whether it be from her Maiden Voyage, one of her World Voyages, or from a Transatlantic Crossing. What we would also like to include is a fabulous collection of photographs of QM2 throughout the years; while under construction, her Maiden Voyage, before and after Refit photos, miscellaneous photographs that we feel the readers may enjoy.(QE2, QM, and QE are included)  All of those who are willing to share their photographs with us will receive proper acknowledgements for their work, as well as for their stories. Also, we would love to interview those who have Commanded the QM2 through the years. If any of you would like to contribute,  please let us know. We figured this would be as good of a place as any to get the ball rolling.

Thanks in advance!

CJ

This thread from seven years ago is looking a little lonely; luckily this afternoon I uploaded to YouTube the maiden voyage departing from Southampton on 12th January 2004...
