[edit] Clarity
This article is a great start on an important Irish company, but it is rather confusing. It would appear that until nationalisation, the company was known as "Coast Lines". If so, the article should make that clear, because the lead section implies that a company called B&I lines was formed in the 19th century.
I suggest that an appropriate structure might be to have a lead section briefly describing the business known as the B&I line, and noting that it was based on the earlier Coast company ... and then in the second section explain the history of Coast before going on in a third section to describe B&I's operations. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 01:28, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
