– Rather obscure 18th-century British Navy organization is hardly a primary topic for "Transport Board", which is part of the name of numerous offices across the globe (listed on the dab page, as well as several unlisted). It's far from top of Google searches, and even its sources suffered a lot of link rot. Just because this this article was the first to occupy the undisambiguated title is not sufficient reason to keep it there. The title lacks Recognizability criterion of the WP:AT.

I would support the move to Transport Board (Royal Navy) for pretty much the reasons No such user suggests. Acad Ronin (talk) 15:20, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom and evident lack of primary and recognizability. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:07, 1 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 05:28, 4 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support move to a less ambiguous title, since we do have articles like Barbados Transport Board and Sri Lanka Transport Board, etc. - WPGA2345 - ☛ 01:21, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:55, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
