At the present time the works of the Seattle Car & Foundry Co. constitutes the largest and best equipped plant on the Pacific Coast for the manufacture of cars, trucks and contractor's equipment, with which is affiliated a rolling mill, providing us ample material under most favorable conditions.
While the shops are perhaps not so extensive as those of some of our Eastern and European competitors, they are capable of turning out work in sufficient quantities and of a quality to enable us to successfully bid on orders of any proportions.
We have been able to satisfy the most rigid requirements of such trans-continental railroads as the Northern Pacific, Southern Pacific, Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, and the Harriman system, such electric companies as Stone & Webster, the British Columbia Electric Railway and the Portland Light & Power Company, not to mention successful competition in the Orient with the leading firms of Europe.
But in spite of this success we never lose sight of the fact that this plant was started primarily for the better service of the Pacific Coast—particularly of the Pacific Coast logging trade. In this field we claim a special fitness which has been proven, by the growth of our business, in a few years, from a very humble beginning into an organization of considerable industrial significance.
But whether you buy cars, trucks, forgings, castings, contractors, bridge building or mining equipment, we are in a position to give you better delivery than the East, greater capacity than any other coast shops of the same character, and prices that are most reasonable for the service rendered. Our sales and engineering department are at your disposal.
You will get satisfaction in dealing with us. Three quarters of our new business this year was from old customers. Why not get acquainted with them and us? Write them or us.
