This page devoted to postcards and photographs of the Southampton, Isle of Wight & South of England Royal Mail Steam Packet Co. Ltd. (later marketed as Red Funnel Steamers) paddles steamer Bournemouth Queen.
 
Bournemouth Queen was built in 1908, serving as an excursion ship from Bournemouth for much of her career. She was slower than the Balmoral (1), at 15 knots, and smaller at 353 gross tons. Bournemouth Queen originally had a white funnel, which later received a black top, finally receiving a red funnel with black top. She served in both wars, and was heavily rebuilt after the second, although remaining as a coal-burner. From 1951, Bournemouth Queen sailed from Southampton, Ryde and Southsea, and was scrapped in 1957.
