"Ailsa stopped large-scale shipbuilding in 1988"

What qualifies as "large-scale"? They made the Lochnevis for CalMac in 2000, for example. I have no expertise in this area, and am simply enquiring. 86.132.142.207 (talk) 00:09, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

"Ships built by..." The Marchioness

I don't know if it meets any WP:NOTE critera, but for possible inclusion in the "Ships built by..." section I offer: The Marchioness - Launched 1899, Sunk (by a U-Boat) 1916. She was a "General Cargo Coaster", Tonnage 586 grt. While the ship herself may not be notable, I can't help thinking that she may have typical of other ships built around the same time.

Yard number 500/501

Found two more vessels: https://www.clydeships.co.uk/view.php?ref=386 https://www.clydeships.co.uk/view.php?ref=351 Most interesting, these were built for British rail to transport British Road-Rail containers between Heysham and Belfast. Togehter with the later built MV Slieve Donard the only British "container ships" built before ISO-Containers became common. 2A04:4540:6609:BF00:D5E1:693F:3E53:116A (talk) 19:37, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
