The Sydney Morning Herald reports that the Queen Mary 2 and Queen Elizabeth 2 megaliners will meet in Sydney on February 20th.
Queen Mary 2 is the world's largest ocean liner and will easily smash the record as the largest ship to have visited Port Jackson when it arrives at 6am. In the evening a fireworks display will greet Queen Elizabeth 2 when it arrives and mark the historic reunion between the two Queens. The occasion will recreate the meeting of the original Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth during wartime.
The two original Queens, painted a dour grey, first met in Sydney on April 9, 1941 while they were serving as troop ships.
