Together with her slightly larger and younger sister ship, the RMS Queen Elizabeth, she was designed to serve the Southampton\u2013New York route. She also served as a troop transport during the Second World War. Retired from service in 1967, she has since been moored in Long Beach, California, where she operates as a museum and hotel, particularly catering to enthusiasts of the paranormal.&#13;\n&#13;\nKnown as the \u201cGrey Ghost\u201d due to her wartime colour scheme, the Queen Mary also has a notable record of accidents, illnesses, and deaths aboard. Two frequently reported apparitions are that of a young girl who broke her neck in the swimming pool, seen searching for her mother and a doll in that area, and of a young crew member, John Henry, crushed in one of the engine rooms while attempting to escape a fire.&#13;\n&#13;\nThis model is part of the Nautical and Aeronautical Collection of the Museum of Angra do Heroismo.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/museu-angra.cultura.azores.gov.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/banner-58.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12561 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/museu-angra.cultura.azores.gov.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/banner-58.jpg 630w, https:\/\/museu-angra.cultura.azores.gov.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/banner-58-300x190.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The RMS Queen Mary was a British-flagged ocean liner of the Cunard Line that sailed the North Atlantic from 1936 to 1967.
