They had a factory in Poland but shut that down. For a while, some fabs where made in Brum but not sure now. India? China? Eastern Europe? 

 

It isn't beyond the bounds of reason to suggest that other Alamo brands could be fabricated and assembled at Alcester? Rayco, Boxer, Morbark but for that 'European ' feel and finish without the transatlantic crossing?

I may be wrong, but isn’t the Vari-track system still under world wide patent?
Didn’t GM successfully sue Forst for nicking it?

Is it possible that’s what Alamo were really after to use in the American market?
 

Uninformed speculation from me, happy to be schooled.

The real reason is that Alamo are now going to build an exciting new machine that has one standard TW blade and one GM disc blade.

It’s for left handed people.
