    Possible Bancroft SS United States in 1/200 scale?

    I am wondering if there has been any consideration for any other passenger ships to be made by Bancroft, particularly the SS United States of 1952. Which sadly is being towed to be sunk off the Florida panhandle as we speak. She is a very important passenger ship in history as she currently holds the record for the fastest passenger ship in the world which she has held since 1952 from her Maiden Voyage which she took from the original RMS Queen Mary which is now in Long Beach California. That would be a pretty cool model for Bancroft to make if that is in the works.. For the SS United States a 1/200 scale model would be about 59.4 inches long as she is 990 ft in length. Given the reefing of the SS United States happening any day now, I really hope that there are considerations in Bancroft making a model of her. Either in 1/200 or even 1/150 scale. I wonder if they're is anyone else besides me who has interest in having this particular liner made?

    take care and happy modeling.
