Atlas-Imperial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Atlas-Imperial was an American Diesel engine builder beginning in 1916.
Atlas Imperial were considered one of the most serviceable diesels ever built in the US. Starting in 1916, Atlas built diesels for tugboats, fishboats and coasters. With engines in a variety of sizes (2 to 8 cylinders), their diesels became common on the Westcoast shore. Many engines that were built in the 1920's continued to run into 1951; soon after Atlas closed its Oakland, California, doors.
