Goldie and McCulloch / Babcock and Wilcox , South Works in Cambridge Ontario.
Last Weekend I traveled to Cambridge Ontario for a family function .
Cambridge is the amalgamated city of the former towns of Galt ,Hespeler and Preston.
The area was home to several Canadian machine tool makers such as McGregor Gourlay , McDougall , Preston Machinery & C.M.C. that have been mentioned in other threads on this forum .
Recently Asquith showed a generating set built by Goldie & McCulloch in post # 11 this thread.

And in post # 15 I added some more links about them .
Since I had a couple of hours to spare I thought I would try and check out the Goldie and McCulloch South Works that I had found this link to .
About Southworks | Southworks History
I really only scratched the surface before I ran out of time but I did manage to get a few pictures of the outside equipment and find a couple of interesting books in the massive antique shop .
To start here are some overall outside pictures and a link to the Google Street View http://goo.gl/maps/iTnWg
