A 1:1200 model of the Ocean Cruiser RMS Coronia, part of the Tri-Ang Minic range produced between 1959 and 1964.

Triang Catalogue Number: M701

This Minic Ships model is of RMS Caronia which followed a new direction for Cunard, being designed exclusively for cruising rather than general passenger service. She was built by John Brown & Company and, as the largest ship built post Second World War, there was much ceremony at her launch which was performed by the then Princess Elizabeth on 30th October 1947.

The model has a white body and red funnel.

RMS Coronia's period of operation was 1947-1968.
