It will be brilliant to see this iconic ship steaming up and down the Clyde.
An anonymous £ 1 million donation has been made to help the TS Queen Mary said the River Clyde again.
"The individual who made such a substantial cash gift wishes to remain anonymous and we, of course, respect that request. But to say we are over the moon is putting it mildly. But after Princess Anne became Royal Patrol of the vessel four years ago plans changed and she announced last year the steamer would sail again on the Clyde. She visited the project again earlier this year.
TS Queen Mary is the last remaining turbine steamship built in Scotland. It became a national treasure in 1996 when she was listed on the UK's official historical ships register and is now the last of her kind in the world.
