    For further info go to: www.oldbug.com/tempo.htm

    Hanomag bought Vidal & Sohne who built the original Tempo and Hanomag was in turn purchased by Mercedes.

    Reminds me of an old American LaFrance Fire Truck cab.

    I love those trains. That is probably the attraction.

    Falcongeorge,

    Of all the Electro-Motives produced, that one is my favorite. Thanks for posting - I know it is OT. :)

    They really are a CLASSIC american design. Right up there with the DC-3, IMO.

    GOOD ONE! Another american classic, and almost a dead match.

    anyone else spot those long tubes for the taillights on that thing? There has GOT to be a hot rod application there somewhere. Although I guess running down to the TEMPO dealer for a pair might create a slight problem.

    It looks a little Crosley-esque in a way.
