One of the appointments that Sulzer refused to make was that of James E. Gaffney, owner of the 1914 " Miracle " Braves, to State Commissioner of Highways.

However, Sulzer maintained that the proceedings against him were unconstitutional and refused to vacate his office.

HS4000, named Kestrel, was a prototype high-powered mainline diesel locomotive built in 1967 by Brush Traction, Loughborough as a technology demonstrator for potential future British Rail and export orders The locomotive number is a combination of the initials of the owner of Brush Hawker Siddeley and the power rating of its Sulzer diesel engine ( 4000 HP ).

" In Berlin Graff also portrayed Moses Mendelssohn and Johann Georg Sulzer, his future father-in-law.

Several types of U-form diesel engine have been historically produced, by companies such as Lister Blackstone and Sulzer Brothers Ltd. A twin bank diesel engine for marine use is described in US Patent 4167857.

The engine of the Class 45 was a marine type slow revving diesel, a Sulzer 12LDA28B with a bore of 280 mm and a stroke of 360 mm.

* Power Plant: 1 Sulzer 7RND76M diesel ; 16, 800 hp ( 13 MW ); 1 shaft ; bow thruster

The turbocharger was invented by Swiss engineer Alfred Büchi ( 1879-1959 ), the head of diesel engine research at Gebruder Sulzer engine manufacturing company in Winterhur, who received a patent in 1905 for using a compressor driven by exhaust gasses to force air into a diesel engine to increase power output but it took another 20 years for the idea to come to fruition.

In 1954, Rootes introduced a novel supercharged diesel engine, based on a Sulzer Brothers concept.

Rudolf Diesel worked for Sulzer in 1879, and in 1893 Sulzer bought certain rights to diesel engines.

Sulzer built their first diesel engine in 1898.

Sulzer developed a series of rail traction engines in the 1930s and 1940s which were used extensively in diesel locomotives in the UK, Europe and South America.

In 1990 Sulzer spun off the diesel engine division into a separate company named " New Sulzer Diesel " ( NSD ) and sold most of the shares in it, retaining only a minority ownership.

AW also obtained the UK license for Sulzer diesels from 1919, and by the 1930s was building diesel locomotives and railcars.

The self-funded prototype Lion main line locomotive was a particular disappointment, powered by a Sulzer 2, 750 hp diesel engine, it was pitted against another self-funded prototype, Falcon, built by Brush at Loughborough which had twin 1, 400 hp Maybach engines ; after trials British Railways preferred the BRCW approach, but ordered them to be built by the Brush company.

Sulzer Brothers developed a diesel engine for rail traction of this type, the LD series, in the 1930s, that was in production for more than fifty years.

The British Rail Class 24 diesel locomotives, also known as the Sulzer Type 2, were built from 1958 to 1961.

The main power for the Class 24 was the Sulzer 6LDA28 diesel engine-denoting 6 cylinders ; Locomotive use ; Direct fuel injection ; ( turbo-charged ); bore cylinders.

The first standalone locomotives made by the company were produced in 1956-57 BRCW: 12 diesel locomotives for the Irish railways Córas Iompair Éireann ( CIE 101 Class ), the order going to BRCW due to capacity problems at CIÉ's own Inchicore Works ; a partnership was established between BRCW and the Swiss diesel engine manufacturers Sulzer Brothers at that time.

Previous experience with Sulzer's 12-cylinder twin parallel-bank dual-crank 12LDA28 engine had gone well, but the highest power available from Sulzer in this form was the 12LDA31 of see The Sulzer engine in diesel traction: A potted and incomplete history.

The initial diesel locomotives for CIE were built and supplied by British railway locomotive builders ( Birmingham RCW with Sulzer engines and AEI Metropolitan Vickers with Crossley engines ), with notably poor results from the latter.

Companies such as MAN B & W Diesel, ( formerly Burmeister & Wain ) and Wärtsilä ( which acquired Sulzer Diesel ) design such large low-speed engines.

Sulzer V-type engines for rail use bore the type number LVA ( with a 50-degree angle between the banks ).

Despite the construction of two demonstration locomotives ( D0260 LION, produced by AEI and BRC & W using a Sulzer engine, and D0280 FALCON, built by Brush Traction using Maybach engines ), the need for a large number of locomotives quickly was deemed paramount, and the pilot build of what would become Class 47 began before the prototypes could be comprehensively assessed.

BRCW obtained an order for 20 mixed traffic diesel-electric locomotives powered by Sulzer 6LDA28 engines.

They were fitted with Sulzer 6LDA28 engines of 915hp ( uprated to in 1956 ), with four Metropolitan-Vickers MV157 traction motors.

They were fitted with Sulzer 6LDA28 engines of, with four Metropolitan-Vickers MV157 traction motors.

* Sulzer engines from around the world

The reference to the name " Sulzer " is until q1-2006 used in the designation of engines Wärtsilä inherited from the absorption of New Sulzer Diesel.

They were powered by Sulzer engines, producing 550 hp, and weighed 66. 7 tons.

Sulzer was blacklisted by the Allies during World War II due to an increase in trade with Axis countries.

He was born in Augsburg, son of Johann Georg Mozart ( 1679 – 1736 ), a bookbinder, and his second wife Anna Maria Sulzer ( 1696 – 1766 ).

Lord Thomas Dongan had governed the Province of New York in the 1680s and Martin H. Glynn served from 1913 to 1914 after Governor William Sulzer was impeached.

In Basel, again, he studied theology under Simon Sulzer ( 1508 – 1585 ), a broad-minded divine of Lutheran sympathies, whose aim was to reconcile the churches of the Helvetic and Wittenberg confessions.

According to film historian Kevin Brownlow, Sturges was inspired by the career of William Sulzer, who was impeached and removed from office as governor of New York.

Amongst the most significant companies was Sulzer Brothers, today's Sulzer Ltd., Sulzer AG, commonly abbreviated to Sulzer.

He was elected Lieutenant Governor of New York in 1912 on the ticket with William Sulzer, and succeeded to the governorship upon Sulzer's impeachment and removal from office in 1913.

William Sulzer ( March 18, 1863November 6, 1941 ) was an American lawyer and politician, nicknamed Plain Bill Sulzer.

Sulzer was elected to the Fifty-fourth United States Congress, and served as a U. S. Representative from New York in the eight succeeding Congresses and served from March 4, 1895, to December 31, 1912.

A few months into his term, Sulzer was alleged to have diverted campaign contributions to his own use and to have lied.

Sulzer was served with a summons to appear before the Court for the Trial of Impeachments, and Lieutenant Governor Martin H. Glynn was empowered to act in his place pending the outcome of the trial.

Sulzer had called upon Louis Marshall to head his defense team and Marshall agreed, telling his wife that he was not enthusiastic about the outcome.

On October 17, 1913, Sulzer was removed by the same margin, a vote of 43 – 12, and Lt. Gov.

Sulzer was able to recover somewhat politically.

Sulzer Brothers helped develop shuttleless weaving, and their core business was loom manufacture.

The Sulzer LDA ( prefixed by the number of cylinders, and with a suffix related to the cylinder bore ) engine was widely used by British Rail.
