| | Tri-ang Minic Ships - RMS Ivernia |
 | | This is the Tri-ang Minic Ships model of RMS Ivernia one of Cunard's four (4) vessel "Saxonia" Class which were designed and built by John Brown and Company to service the St Lawrence Route to Quebec and Montreal replacing all of Cunard's old pre-Second World War vessels such as Scythia, Samaria, and Ascania. |
 | | The maximum dimensions of these vessels was governed by the restrictions of the St Lawrence Seaway which they had to traverse for nearly 1000 miles to reach their final port of Montreal. |
 | | During summer months RMS Ivernia and RMS Saxonia sailed on the Southampton, Le Havre, Cobh, Quebec, Montreal route while in the winter, when the St Lawrence Seaway is ice bound, they would sail on the Southampton, Le Havre, Cobh, Halifax, New York route. |
