Reply to "Help ID this German Clockwork."

I believe the Issmayer book states that Bub was building clockwork locomotives for them. Here is a similar JAJ loco from that book. bub made loco with JAJ logo

And THIS is the joy of identifying many German Clockworks , Manufacturers copied, borrowed, commissioned from each other , and often produced "generics" and many different versions of the same loco , and the two world wars which saw many factories damaged and records lost/thrown out/burnt/destroyed.

Then you have the super productive post war "collective " years where trademarks were forgone in many cases to be replaced by " Made in U.S. Zone " and the same loco/wagons could be made by different manufacturers made it even more confusing ... Arne and Daniel do an amazing job of sorting these out for us plebs

Tis also why I had that Adolph Schuhmann gut feeling cos he produced locos like this ...

Similar also to the bub AND the Issmayer
