She operated "Doon the Watter" sailings from Glasgow to Arran and the Kyles of Bute, for 44 years. She was towed from the Clyde to London and for almost twenty years was operated as a bar and restaurant. In October 2015, Friends of TS Queen Mary saved her from scrap and raised almost �300,000 in cash and in-kind support to return her to Scotland, in May 2016. She came home to Glasgow in November 2016 and is being restored at Glasgow Science Centre. When you come on board you'll get to meet the workers who are bringing the ship back to life, and see for yourself the craftsmanship involved. The charity's vision is that Queen Mary will be one of the UK�s largest interactive maritime exhibits and will provide an unparalleled way of learning about our maritime and social history. As a museum, she will connect local people with their river and its industrial heritage. Queen Mary will offer a range of exciting curriculum-linked learning experiences to all schools in Strathclyde, for pupils and learners of all ages and abilities. She will inspire the next generation in a range of related disciplines.</p><p>�</p> Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1933
