 The capital for the new factory in Fishponds was provided by Ronald Murray, and the facility was set up to build 16 locomotives a year.The company used the shunting line into Fishponds railway station and onto the Midland line in order to get their engines onto the mainline and onto their customers.The company carried on the previous firm's policy of concentrating on smaller engine types of various gauges, and saw some success in exporting their locomotives all over the world as far afield as South America.
