Talk:Type C1 ship

Confusion

¿Are these the same "C1" ships reffered to as Liberty ships? If so, ¿shouldn't the two articles be merged (with a redirect from Liberty Ships to here)? (Of course, if they are, in fact, completely diffrent types of vsls, then please disregard.75.175.118.67 (talk) 03:38, 18 October 2009 (UTC)A REDDSON

• No, Liberty Ships were built during World War II under the Emergency Shipbuilding program and displacement of 14,245 long tons, and length of 441 ft. C1 were: length of 412.25 ft, beam of 60 feet, beam 56 feet and displacement 6,240 to 7,815.Telecine Guy (talk) 21:03, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Conflicting sources

• Type C1 ships page says that C1 A and C1B ships were both built with diesel or steam propulsion

• Outboard Profiles of Maritime Commission Vessels, The C1 Cargo Ship, Conversions and Subdesigns States that all C1-A ships were built with diesel propulsion, and that only 10 C1b ships had diesel.

• • Reply
• C1-A used Allis Chalmers geared turbine engine,(not sure if any C1-A had diesel)

• Design: C1-B Seattle-Tacoma SB Corp., Tacoma, Washington, diesel propulsion
• Design: C1-B Western Pipe & Steel Co., San Francisco, California 5 diesel propulsion 2 Busch-Sulzer 2-cycle, trunk-piston diesel engines.
• Design: C1-M-AV1 Consolidated Steel Corp., Wilmington, California, diesel propulsion
• Design: C1-B Bethlehem Steel Co., SB Division, Staten Island, New York steam turbine

Looks like both for B. Telecine Guy (talk) 21:03, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
