Talk:John Fowler & Co.

Waianae Sugar Company
Do you know any details about the locomotive of Waianae Sugar Company?

The first locomotive was imported from John Fowler & Co. at Leeds, England. It had to be disassembled and re-assembled to get it ashore. Only then it was noted that it did not match the narrow gauge track. The undercarriage had to be dismantled, machined to size, and then commissioned. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 06:27, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

Fowler tractor in a film
In a video production of an Agatha Christie novel featuring Hercule Poirot, "The Theft of the Royal Ruby", there is a tractor that drive out from a farm onto a road. The company name is very clearly visible on the tractor. Is this worth mentioning? Are there other machines in other movies? Pete unseth (talk) 00:46, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Are there any reliable sources that point this out? Was it significant to the plot that a Fowler tractor was used? Would it have made any difference to the story if a Foster tractor had been used? -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 07:19, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * The company was not crucial in the plot. The only source I have is the video, itself. I only raise the question of mentioning this in article. I am not pushing for it.Pete unseth (talk) 20:03, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Then it shouldn't be included, per WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE and WP:HTRIVIA. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 10:09, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
