Dickson Manufacturing Company

The company also designed and constructed steam powered mine cable hoists.

Their first major contract was to supply locomotives for a new railroad constructed by the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company.

The company continued to expand and by 1890 its shops covered six acres and employed more than 1,200 workers.

One notable change to the locomotive was the larger water tank on the extended frame.
