Trivia: Cars and Trains by Three...

Featured Replies

Three unrelated manufacturers, but dabbling in the same circles.

Company 1 had much success in road vehicles (cars & trucks), and much success in rail vehicles (locomotives). This one is a freebie.

Company 2 had much success in road vehicles, and minor success in rail vehicles. Still in bidness.

Company 3 had little success in road vehicles (but they were in production under the same name), and much success in rail vehicles. Long gone.

#2 or #3 (depending on how you define ("still in bidness" and "long gone") could be Bugatti

Company #4 Had much success in automotive products and later purchased a company that had much success in rail products, yet both companies succumed to their competition in the same decade. The corporate remants of both companies are still in existance today.

#3 is Alco. Alco built road vehicles '05-13. One of their last cars , the '12 Berliner, sold for $7250 new.

So... Who is #2??

Mitsubishi also makes light rail vehicles, and subway cars. Both Fiat and Renault used to make rail vehicles, but not any more.
