Description:

FEDOR SHALYAPIN
Russian

ex Ivernia

RMS Ivernia was a Saxonia class ocean liner, built in 1955 by John Brown & Company in Clydebank, Scotland for Cunard Line, for their transatlantic passenger service between the UK and Canada. In 1963 she was rebuilt as a cruise ship and renamed RMS Franconia. She continued to sail for Cunard until being withdrawn from service and laid up in 1971. In 1973 she was sold to the Soviet Union's Far Eastern Shipping Company and, renamed SS Fedor Shalyapin, cruised around Australia and the far East. In 1980 she was tranferred to the Black Sea Shipping Company fleet, and for a time returned to cruising in the Mediterranean and around Europe. In 1989 she was transferred again, to the Odessa Cruise Company, and continued her career as a cruise ship until 1994. She was then laid up at Ilichevsk, a Black Sea port 40 km southwest of Odessa until 2004 when, as the Salona, she sailed to Alang, India, where she was scrapped.

Thank you Gordy for one more beautiful pic of a significant history ship ( Fedor Shalyapin ex Saxonia class ).
Just to recall, that the Saxonia class ocean liners (far leading with the SAXONIA) were the one of the admired and very recognized ships in those days, i.e.late fifties/early sixties., especially by the look of their "impressive" funnel. Kind regards/Jadran
