Major overhaul in progress edit
I'm not clear on what needs to take place or which company's article should have which information. From the looks of one source, Babcock & Wilcox became BWX Technologies on July 1, 2015. That source also suggests the nuclear power related businesses go under that second article, which already existed but referred to a unit of Babcock & Wilcox. I did that, even though what I moved was promotional sounding. I'm not clear on what historical information should go where, but I'm treating Babcock & Wilcox as if it is the parent company and the company that was there all along. If anyone can figure out what should be done, they are certainly welcome to do so.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 16:48, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

New York City subway false claim edit
The statement "In 1902, the New York City's first subway is powered by B&W boilers." is incorrect and misleading. The first subway line, the IRT, opened in october 1904, and was powered by electricity, not steam. If the "powered" refers to B&W steam boilers being used to power electric generators, it should be clarified. "The New York Subway: Its Construction and Equipment," published by the IRT in 1904 describes the boilers used in the power plant but does not mentioned who manufactured them. 68.230.153.193 (talk) 02:50, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
