Crankshaft Made from Diesel Engine

Written by
A diesel engine with 10 cylinders and 100,000 horsepower has recently been installed in a locomotive Considering that in America 99% of locomotives are diesel-electric hybrids, the 'GE Evolution Series' locomotive holds about 5,000 gallons of diesel. The effectiveness of fuel for trains is measured in tonne-miles, and the length of trains produces different results. For instance, in 2009, CSX trains have reached an average of 468 miles per gallon per tonne, which means that trains can travel anywhere, from 6,000 to 16,000 tonnes.

Restoring antiques

Written by
Recently, a video has been published showing the ignition of a very old two-stroke diesel engine, made by the Swiss company Sulzer in the early 20th century. Despite its old age, the engine features a great, very strong and effective design. Today it can be ignited just like the first time, but unfortunately it is a great environment-pollutant. The big engine weighs about 15 tonnes, and features 100 horsepower. Unfortunately, there isn't much information available about the engine, since the restoration and tests are still in process.
