Construction and Commissioning
editThe section on construction says "the contract to build her was awarded to Devonport Dockyard, of Portsmouth." This makes no sense. Devonport is in Devonport, not Portsmouth! DuncanHill (talk) 13:55, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
- I've assumed that "Portsmouth" was a slip for "Plymouth", and changed the text accordingly. DuncanHill (talk) 17:32, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
Ash ejector pump detail
editFound this interesting snippet on Ash Handling, presented at the Annual Meeting, New York, December 4 to 7, 1922, of The American Society of Mech. Engineers. It highlights the crucial role of the ash ejector pump in the survival of the Marlborough. See page 690-691. http://cybra.p.lodz.pl/Content/5948/AshHandling.pdf — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonkolbeinsen (talk • contribs) 09:55, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
