Products and brands

In production are several railbuses to be sent to Peru for operation, patterned after original Edwards designs dating from the mid-1920s. The propulsion system for these cars uses a diesel-hydraulic design after joint engineering with Parker Hannifin and Cummins.

Peter Witt trolley #754 was restored for M-Line Trolley, as well as an original Edwards Model 10 for a private collector.
