Does anyone know if there are "Build" or "Order" books for Danforth Locomotives, like the ones that are available for Baldwin Locomotives?

I have just discovered that my G-G-Grandfather also purchased some Danforth Locomotives, but haven't been able to research them like I could the Baldwins.

I would appreciate any information or suggestions as to where to look.

Thank you,
Fred Probst

Danforth was independentdly in business from 1865-1883, although it was part of a more long-lived organization which included Cooke. Generally, you could say that the whole organization lasted from 1800 up until being absorbed by Alco in 1901.

Ron - Thanks for that. I will conduct a search for Cooke and Alco information.
