You would think after the Titanic, that would have been the end for them.

One might also think that in this Jet Age - Ocean Liners would not be in hot demand.

Why? The shipbuilders didn't drive it into the iceberg.

It's a far more elegant way to travel, if sheer speed isn't your goal. Ask Cunard. They keep buying Queen Elizabeths and Queen Marys.

Hopefully, there will always be a place for these magnificent ships.

They were the builders. Probably not the designers.
