HISTORICAL NOTE: the firm was established by several leading
employees of EB Wilson's Railway Foundry together with
Alexander Campbell who had been brought in by shareholders to
manage the company when Wilson left. Together with CW Wardle
and John Manning the new company bought land adjoining the
Railway Foundry from Viscount Boyne and set up as general
engineers. The Railway Foundry estate was auctioned in 1859
and Manning Wardle bought the drawings for 17 different types
of engines as well as other items, beginning then to build
locomotives of Wilson type, concentrating on four and six
coupled saddle tanks for contractor and industrial use.
Together with the neighbouring firm of the Hunslet Engine
Company the area was the foremost site of railway engine
production in the country, many of the products being
exported.
