Didn't R & M Rebadge Westinghouse fans for a while?

Yes, rebadged Westy tank fans for R&M came out in 1908 I think if not 1907.  I forget if the relationship went on further as my collecting era ends with the tanks and other cast iron fans.   Perhaps my favorite Westy tanks are the rebadged R&M versions.

That's what I thought. So that means Westinghouse and R & M Tanks were made Contemporaneously for a while before R & M came out with their own version, which by the sounds of it from what you were saying in an earlier post in this thread was somewhere around 1911 or thereabouts, which means the R & M rebadged Westinghouse Tanks may have been made until at least 1910 or so. 🤔
