I visited St Petersburg in 2014 and 2015. Aurora was in her usual place the first year but she was missing last year. I was told that she had been towed to the dockyard at Kronstadt for another major refurbish. I was also told that she would be restored to working order and would become the flagship of the Russian Navy. I'm probably wrong but I have a vague recollection that her engines were made in Glasgow.
