We’re off to Summerlee Museum of Scottish Industrial Life in Coatbridge for the fantastic Ship Ahoy event. ⛴️

In this video, we dive into the world of maritime modelling with a look at the incredible vessels on display. We also have a special interview with Michael McLaughlin, who gives us a fascinating update on the legendary TS Queen Mary.

But there’s more to Summerlee than just ships! We take a nostalgic ride on a vintage bus from the Glasgow Vintage Vehicle Trust, explore the historic Miners’ Row cottages through the decades, and even stop by the Summerlee Wee Sweetie Shop for some traditional treats. From the canal-side views to the heavy machinery of the Summerlee Coal Company, it’s a packed day of Scottish history.
