Pax Engineering made motorcycles in 1921 & 1922 at Station Road, Acocks Green. Can anyone tell me whereabouts in Station Road their firm was please?
 
No help, but to stop others looking, there is no "Pax" or motor cycle manufacturer listed in Kellyey is Staion road in the 1921 or 1924 editions
 
I saw that.
The only thing I can see is there was a Garage listed on Station Road run by C B Cooper but no idea what sort of a garage. Quite a few houses and shops plus a club but didn't seem to be any industry.
 
Just a thought I has is was the garage selling the motorbikes as an own brand? i recall Vale Onslow selling a brand called SOS (The Sid Onslow Special) once.
 
I've recently raised the same question on various Facebook groups trying to find information. Also asked Acocks Green Local History, no reply as yet, they have a page on their website all about Station Road and it's history, no mention of Pax, also contacted the National Motorcycle Museum but they have no information. It was short lived, only a couple of years. The did have a stand in 1921 at the trade fare at Castle Bromish/ Vale. The area around Acocks Green at the time I can only assume the postman knew the businesses so Station Road was all that was needed.
