The most beautiful sound in the world.....is the tremulous blast from QE2's deep, majestic horn! There is NOTHING like it left in the world today....the true sound of an ocean liner....

I do agree with you but I was fortunate enough to have my camcorder with me when HMS INVINCIBLE visited the Mersey. Her whistle was like nothing I have ever heard. The beautiful deep sonorous sound was truly deafening !! . I have it for posterity . One of the best steam whistles was RMS Windsor castle which you might find here on you tube.

I’ve just found this, and it’s given me goosebumps and tears. I spent many happy Atlantic crossings and cruises on QE2 with my parents. My beloved (and sadly departed) Pa, adored her, and hearing her whistle brings those memories back. I can see him now, on our balcony watching as we left port and waiting for that whistle. What a lucky girl I was. I never took it for granted, and loved that ship as well. Happy memories.

QE2's horn hands down. I've heard it live many times and it has an amazing deep tone to it. Far better than QM2's. Norway's BTW was pretty weak. Check it out-it's on KZfaq.

lasuvidaboy QM2 is closer to the older ships! One or her horns is from the original Queen Mary!
@adadc40526 жыл бұрын
QM2 does not compare to the QE2 at any level. QM2 fits the Carnival experience with the Cunard branding. It is a Carnival ship that tries mimic the Cunard experience. I still sail on QM2 though as I prefer the lack of frills found on the cruise ships of today.

@Norfolkscot , The QE2 has horns and an electro horn not a siren. I collect ship horns and have seen these horns in person. These are the horns on the QE2: Mast, air horn: Kockumsonics MKT 230/75 air SuperTyfon. Mast, electric horn: Kockumsonics MA 18/75 ElectroTyfon. Bow: Kockumsonics MTX 150/130 ElectroTyfon.

On every crossing aboard QE2 (14 in all) and on QM2 (2 to date), the captain has always announced the testing of the ship's WHISTLE at 12 noon ship's time.

@chasriner , They were called "ship whistles" back when ships ran on steam, The term "ship whistle" dates from the time when steam whistles was the usual instrument on ships. At some stage the distinction between fog horn and ship's whistle has blurred.Without steam-driven ships the "whistle" was usually an air or electro/piston type horn. Whistles where simple cylindrical instruments. The "horns on ships these days have diaphragms(moved by air) or a piston(moved by an electric motor.

After all those years, she never had port thrusters?
@bvanleeuwen2548 жыл бұрын
She did have a forward port thruster, and in the orginal plans there we also a set aft on the ship. Sadly, because of money issues, they never made it to the final design. During the final year of service, the bow thrusters were in operable, Cunard never fixed it, partly because she was leaving service, and partly because the thrusters where a little bit to weak to handle the shit.
@MrAJO773 жыл бұрын
QM2 has 3 bow thrusts, but still usually has tug assistance for berthing. With a ship that size in confined spaces it's just safer. An ocean liner is a very different beast to a ferry.

Nope. These are Tyfon horns. Olympic did have a whistle, but whistles have not been common on ships since the thirties.
