	The Ultimate RMS Queen Elizabeth 2 Dog Breeds Information Guide and Reference (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Queen Elizabeth 2, often called "the QE2," was the flagship of the Cunard Line from 1969 until she was succeeded by RMS Queen Mary 2 in 2004.
		The QE2 was considered the last of the great transatlantic ocean liners prior to the Queen Mary 2, and was the last oil-fired passenger steamship to cross the Atlantic in regularly scheduled liner service before she was refitted with a diesel power plant.
		The "2" in the name distinguishes her from the first ship of that name, the RMS Queen Elizabeth, named for Queen Elizabeth, the wife of King George VI of the United Kingdom, who was Queen Consort when that ship was built.

	RMS Queen Mary 2 (via CobWeb/3.1 planet03.csc.ncsu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Queen Mary 2 is a Cunard Line passenger ship named after the earlier Cunard liner Queen Mary, which was in turn named after Mary of Teck.
		The ship was constructed to replace the RMS Queen Elizabeth 2 (''QE2''), which was the Cunard flagship from 1969 to 2004.
		The ship prefix "RMS" is affixed to the QM2, which used to stand for "Royal Mail Steamer," but which now stands for "Royal Mail Ship." The QM2 is not a steamship like her predecessors, but is powered by gas turbines and diesel generators which produce the power to drive her four electric motors.

	RMS Queen Mary - LostLiners.com
		Now as the postwar years saw prosperous years for Queen Mary, a problem first noticed when she was still new to the sea began to gain considerable attention.
		Despite the model tests that showed she would be a very stable ship, Queen Mary rolled so much that, in the words of some, she could "...roll the milk out of a cup of tea..." and Cunard's confidence in her stability had led to the shortsighted absence of storm rails in her corridors.
		RMS Queen Mary arrived at her new home at 11:30AM on Saturday December 9th, 1967 much the way she had entered the world; to the cheers of more than 1 million people.

		The queen toured the Queen Mary with interest, and in spite of her all-through conservative mind, she seemed to have enjoyed the tour.
		But considering that the Queen Mary had carried through a distance of her voyage at a very slow speed, the British knew that the Blue Riband soon would be theirs.
		But the Queen Mary was still able to further push her engines, and in August 1938, the Queen Mary retook the Blue Riband with a crossing time of three days, twenty hours and forty minutes.
