Dear All, maybe, the following information is useful somehow. I got it from Jens Merte, who told me, that Leipziger & Co. was certainly not a manufacturer of locomotives but just a dealer. Leipziger & Co. can be found on many delivery records of locomotive manufacturers like Jung, Henschel, Deutz, Hanomag, and sometimes O&K, Oberursel, Heilbronn, Maffei and Ruhrthaler. Leipziger & Co. was located in Cologne not in Berlin. Jens wrote, that he does not have more information about the company.
