The Linthouse engine-works starting building two-cycle Diesel engines. These engines were at that time the largest two-stroke engines built in this country, and the first of a standard size of cylinder, which has since been used in many ships. They were the first of the Diesel type to be constructed by the Firm, and were built under licence from Sulzer Brothers, of Winterthur, Switzerland. They have proved a great success, with a most economical consumption of fuel oil, the Dalgoma, which is giving excellent service, has, until recently, only once returned to this country since she was handed over.[1]
