further to the above theme.
Orenstein & Koppel are still in existence in Germany and manufacture machinery
for civil engineering mainly. I am sure that they would supply any
information on their history and present products. Their trade mark
is the O K inside a horizontal diamond. You will have probably seen it
somewhere as there products are distributed world wide. Perhaps their
web site can help (not known to me at the minute) I would be surprised
if no one has written a book about them. Lots of their NG engines
served in sugar plantations, mines etc and many small industrial
railroads (rubber) in the far east. There is certainly more info
available in the German language - unfortunately.
