Talk:List of automotive superlatives/Archive 1

message: We've been trying to stick to just passenger vehicles, so I'd prefer to replace "1920 Mack Trucks" with the first passenger vehicle application, or add the first passenger vehicle application as well.  However, I don't know the first passenger vehicle to feature power brakes ;-) Anyone have any ideas? TomTheHand 15:40, Apr 8, 2005 (UTC)
: I googled a bit and only found a reference to that a professor John Hrones "helped develop the first power brakes for Chrysler in the 1950s.".  have some interesting stuff, but not power brakes. // Liftarn
:: Allpar doesn't claim the first power brakes.  Apparently, Pierce-Arrow's Series 36 of 1927 had power brakes .  Also, I found a claim that the Hispano-Suiza H6 of the 1920s (introduced in 1919) had 4-wheel power brakes.  Since the Classic Car Club of America considers power brakes a factor in determining if a 1925-1948 car is a classic, I'd say they were widely available in this time period.  Packard was apparently the first American company with power brakes in 1952, though Duesenberg was the first with four-wheel hydraulic brakes in 1920.  So we have lots of dates.  I'd lean towards the H-S H6 of 1919.  --SFoskett 18:08, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC)
:::Yeah, I'd probably go with the H-S as well.  The only other competition these marques had in terms of cutting-edge engineering was Marmon but I think they concentrated on engines.  I can't find any references to their cars having power brakes prior to 1925.  Their V16 engine was a hell of a thing though.  ;-)   --JonGwynne 23:53, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: If there is something sensible to say about the Austrian railways in 1460 (as of 27-6-2019), it should be (with references) not only in the introduction, but also as first item under History.

Also, and least in the first paper, it was clear from the page called 226 (35/53 on the pdf, in §7.1) that "BP" meant approximate years before 2000 CE or perhaps the time of writing (2015 CE), not time before 1 January 1950 CE.DubleH (talk) 08:45, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

"The Bags", which was used for the 2007 compilation and some of the posters from that era, should be treated as an alternate name.
