Queen Victoria (ship)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Queen Victoria has been the designation for several ships:
- PS Queen Victoria was a wooden paddlewheel steamer that was wrecked in 1853 off of Bailey Lighthouse, Howth with the loss of over 80 people.
- TS Queen Mary originally sailed as TS Queen Victoria from 1933 to 1935.
- RMS Queen Mary was, according to shipping legend, initially supposed to be called Victoria in line with the naming of Cunard Steamship Lines liners, with an ending in -ia, as with the Lusitania, Mauritania, and the like.
- MS Arcadia is a cruise liner which was intended to be Queen Victoria for Cunard Line. However, a restructuring by Cunard's parent company, Carnival Corporation, saw this vessel transferred to P&O as Arcadia.
