This site is devoted to all subjects connected with the shipping company British India Steam Navigation, or BI as it is most often known. BI was formed in 1856 and remained one of the largest companies in the British mercantile marine until it was finally entirely absorbed into P&O in 1972. The site will contain a growing amount of information about BI, its ships, routes, the people who manned the ships, and - essentially - is one of the contact points for former BI staff.
