The railroad

One of the railroads needs to be clearly identified as the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. Why do people need to be so sloppy in naming things? Also, this gives a viable hyperlink to an article on the railroad.74.249.82.221 (talk) 23:12, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As companies that have been important in Alabama, especially in the Birmingham, Alabama area for a long time, and continue to be important, there need to be articles on these "big steel" companies:

the U.S. Pipe and Foundary Company
the American Cast Iron Pipe Company

Note that these have both made cast iron and steel pipes for various large civil engineering and petroleum engineering projects for a long time, no matter what their names say.74.249.82.221 (talk) 00:52, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
