Skabo Jernbanevognfabrikk

Skabo Jernbanevognfabrikk was a mechanical workshop focusing on design and construction of railcars.

[1][2] Because the delivery of rail cars is uneven, Skabo participated in other manufacturing, including coachworks for trucks, buses and taxicabs.

[3] Also technical devices and stalls and in 1926 firewood powered snow melters; the latter contraption rather unsuccessful.

The electrical components for these were often built by Norsk Elektrisk & Brown Boveri or foreign companies like AEG or ASEA.

[5] Many of the wooden passenger cars delivered to both Norges Statsbaner[7] and others are built by Skabo.
