Summary

A. Goninan & Co. Ltd. was established in 1899. The company manufactures and undertakes maintenance work on railway equipment from locomotives to light rail vehicles. 'A Goninan & Co. Limited is Australia's leading designer and manufacturer of railway rolling stock.'

It appears that the company eventually changed its name to United Goninan, which was taken over by the United Group in 1999.
