>The Queen Mary runs on electrics...
Queen Mary 2 is propelled by electric motors, but its electric energy is
created by 4 diesel engines (67Mw total) and 2 gas turbines (50Mw total).
Queen Mary 1 was steam powered.
QM2 is a great example to point out to skeptics who think that it would make
no sense to have a larger boat propelled by electric motors if you'd need a
genset to create the electricity.
