New to ships and I have no idea what is out there so I will pose the question:
Are there any model ships of (or that could be converted to) something that would likely to have been used as a Ice Breaking ship during the period of roughly 1890 -1910
Any advice or direction would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Charles
