it became Alco Products, Inc. and was acquired in 1964 by the Worthington Corporation. In addition to steam and
diesel engines and generators, the American Locomotive Company also manufactured high quality steel and military
tanks, with unsuccessful ventures in automobile manufacture (1905-1913) and the production of nuclear energy
(1954-1962). Collection contains advertising and publicity, correspondence, financial records (annual reports,
