It was founded in September 1898 by a syndicate of Sydney businessmen buying the Granville factory of timber merchants Hudson Brothers. The company won contracts for railway rolling stock, a sewerage system, trams and agricultural machinery. In 1907 it won its first contract for steam locomotives for the New South Wales Government Railways. By 1923 it had 2,200 employees. After contracting during the depression it became a major supplier of munitions during World War II.[1] In 1950 it was awarded the first of many contracts for diesel locomotives by the Commonwealth Railways after it was appointed the Australian licensee for Electro-Motive Diesel products.[2] Apart from building locomotives and rolling stock, Clyde Engineering diversified into telephone and industrial electronic equipment, machine tools, domestic aluminium ware, road making and earth making equipment, hydraulic pumps, product finishing equipment, filtration systems, boilers, power stations and firing equipment, car batteries, hoists and cranes, door and curtain tracks and motor vehicle distribution.[1] In July 1996 it was taken over by Evans Deakin Industries.[3][4][5] In March 2001 Evans Deakin was taken over by Downer Group to form Downer EDi.[6][7] ProductsAmongst the classes of locomotives built by Clyde Engineering were: Steam locomotivesCommonwealth Railways

Because of capacity constraints, in the 1990s Clyde leased Australian National Industries' Braemar factory to fulfill its order for FreightCorp 82 class locomotives.[11] References1. ^1 {{cite journal| title=Clyde publishes company history| journal=Railway Digest| date=December 1992| page=455}} [12]2. ^Downer & Electro-Motive Diesel Sign New Agreement {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140107022939/http://www.downergroup.com/Investors/ASX-Announcements/View-Announcements.aspx?year=2012 |date=7 January 2014 }} Downer EDi 26 June 2012 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/collection/database/?irn=442947|title=Clyde Industries door handle, 1972 - 1996|work=Powerhouse Museum}} 4. ^Clyde Industries Limited delisted.com.au 5. ^"EDI Wins Clyde Takeover Battle" Railway Digest September 1996 page 10 6. ^Evans Deakin Industries Limited delisted.com.au 7. ^Annual Report 30 June 2001 Downer EDI 8. ^{{cite web|title=Peats Ferry Road Bridge over Hawkesbury River|work=Heritage and conservation register, Roads & Maritime Services|publisher=Government of New South Wales|date=15 August 2005|accessdate=14 January 2015|url=http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/index.cgi?action=heritage.show&id=4309666}} 9. ^{{cite web|last1=Carol|first1=Jacinta|title=Former Downer EDI site sells|url=http://www.westernadvocate.com.au/story/2763510/huge-plans-for-downer-edi-site/|website=Western Advocate|publisher=Fairfax|accessdate=26 June 2015}} 10. ^{{cite journal|title=Clyde Engineering's Brisbane (Eagle Farm) Plant Closes| journal=Railway Digest|date=May 1995|page=16}} 11. ^"Clyde Set to Lease Mittagong Factory" Railway Digest June 1993 page 221 12. ^1 {{cite book|last=Oberg|first=Leon|title=Locomotives of Australia|year=2007|publisher=Rosenberg Publishing|location=Sydney|isbn=9781877058547}} }} Further reading
