Announced in 1999, $150 million plant, 275,000 Sq. Ft, 250 employees. Big News, etc.
Plant was built but never opened. Sits out north of Pine about 145th Street? I'll bet someone at the home office got spanked over that one.....

Lights are on, but no one is home there.
Story I was told regarded cutback and or lack of railroad subsidies and therefore slow demand for the replacement and OEM wheels for the trains.
