  • @cumbass, your analogy is flawed.

    Queen Mary was built by John Brown on Clydebank; Titanic by Harland & Wolff @ Belfast.

    Two different companies in two entirely different eras. You ought to recall that QE2 served longer than ANY liner henceforth built (and I'm an American here - not a British national). Titanic was a magnificent vessel, most unfortunately doomed to her death by a massive convergence of cascading failures in three critical domains: command, engineering, and construction.

  • I like both

  • both of them.. if was a multi bilionaire i would donate $100,000,000 to the Queen i just love it

  • both majestic vessels

  • They both are great liners! Normandie was ahead of her time! And Queen mary was a classic! I'll choose them both

  • Normandie was far superior. Technically it was a a generation ahead of QM.

  • i prefer the sleek design of the normandie to the queen mary's more traditional style but i do enjoy the architecture that the queen represents

  • @cumbas I'm ok with you!

    Anyway I've got these two 1/400 scale models at home. Because precisely, I don't know wich one I prefer......(lol)!!!

  • @STEN3326

    It was not a question because of course I know perfectly that...

    I want just that YOU write that because if we read you we can to know that it's a majority to say that the Brits builded solid Liners

    So yes the French builded the current larger Brit Liner & not only one & build & will build more of others large Liners (in spite of the unfair & dishonest competition of any Asian countries with their workers at very low price in front of the French workers)

    After this no comments to add

  • @cumbas The Frenchs builded the current larger Brits liner. QM2 at St Nazaire.

    Queen Mary 1 is afloat at long Beach until today!

    And steal quality was different for Titanic and QM1...I think we canot compare.

    Titanic was very solid too because her sister ship "Olympic" runed until 1935. I mean, no luck for Titanic because the angle with the iceberg.

    Friendly,
