Sorry Jim, just now saw your post.
The Progress Rail business is going into the mammoth plant formerly used by ABB. A very appropriate facility. They manufactured very large electric transformers....and it already has railroad tracks into the building and I've read, 6 ft. thick concrete floors.
Sorry, messed up and didn't finish....See above post.
Jim, sorry...just now saw your post.
Progress Rail will be going into the former massive plant of ABB.
It is a perfect fit for such a project. It is just a few miles from the BWA plant, which at this time {as far as I know}, is only being used by some businesses for storage.
But I understand it too is on the market for a business proposition.
I'm just about 8 minutes from the former BWA plant.
