Does anyone out there know if the Fairmont files are in archive somewhere? We have acquired a railbus that everybody thinks was built by Fairmont and we are attempting to find a paper trail of it. Any help would be appreciated. Later! Mr. Ed |

Ed, You can call this number; 507-235-7376 Its the parts phone number for Fairmont Harsco. If you have a serial number on the engine or elsewhere they should be able to trace it. Currently Fairmont Harsco does keep all their records but a recent announcement that the Fairmont, MN plant is closing will require relocation of those records. I have traced a handful of speeders this way and the staff at Fairmont Harsco is very helpful. Chris |
