Anchor Line service to Bombay (Mumbai), 1950s edit

Information and documentation for service of (especially) the ships known as “Cilicia” and “Circassia” between 1952 and 1957. My family crossed to Bombay on P&O SS in 1952, followed by returns to the Uk on Anchor Line’s Cilicia & Circassia. Cilicia was latterly used as a hospital ship in the battle with Argentina for the Falkland Islands. Milda Bawoo (talk) 17:45, 3 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Wrong Lord Runciman? edit

The article says "Shipping magnate Lord Runciman saved the company, letting it retain its identity." Surely the link is to the wrong Runciman. This Runciman was not a lord in 1935 and was a career polititian. His father Walter Runciman was a lord and a shipping magnate, although there is no mention of his involvement with the Anchor Line in the latter's article. Also we could use a citation.
