EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the original bridge telegraph of the iconic Cunard Line QE2, installed in 1967 and remaining in service until its removal in 1987. The QE2, a symbol of luxury and elegance in ocean travel during the 20th century, was known for its advanced technology and innovative design. This bridge telegraph, a vital communication and navigation tool, was a testament to the ship's rich maritime history. The bridge telegraph, with its intricate knobs and dials, served as the primary means of transmitting instructions from the bridge to various departments throughout the ship. The telegraph allowed the captain and officers to send signals for full speed ahead, half speed, slow, stop, and even dead in the water. The telegraph's dead center position signified a stand-still order. The telegraph played a significant role in the ship's navigation and communication systems during the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. It was a critical component in ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the QE2. The telegraph's removal in 1987 marked the end of an era in ocean liner technology and design. This photograph captures a moment in maritime history, providing a glimpse into the past and the evolution of communication and navigation systems on board ocean liners. The telegraph's intricate design and historical significance make it a fascinating subject for collectors and enthusiasts of transportation history.
