The Titanic is resurfacing in time for her centenary.
But the ship is not all she seems. A 100ft version of the ill-fated liner has made an appearance at the mouth of the Caledonian Canal in Inverness. The scaled-down replica, built by marine enthusiast Stan Fraser, will open up as part of a maritime museum and cafe in time for next April, which will mark the 100th anniversary of the tragedy.
The real Titanic famously sank after striking an iceberg in April 1912, with the loss of 1,503 lives.
Walkers and cyclists on the canal towpath behind his home at the Old Toll House on the city's Clachnaharry Road look in amazement at the scaled-down model. It even comes complete with four belching funnels using a smoke system dating back to his rock and roll years when ME sufferer Mr Fraser helped bands with their fog effects.
