These are notes I am writing to help me learn our industrial history. They are my best understanding, but that does not mean they are a correct understanding.

Bedford, IN: GM Powertrain
While studying the former railroads in Bedford, IN, I learned about the existence of GM Powertrain. I asked in the below posting if this delivery was in Bedford, but I never got a reply. A Goggle search of "GM Powertrain" offers the topics of Defiance and Toledo, OH; but not Bedford, IN. Wikipedia indicates Bedford's GM Powertrain plant opened in 1942 and now makes transmission casings. Toledo has been open since 1956 and makes various transmissions. Defiance has been open since 1948, and it is a foundry that makes aluminum/iron engine blocks.
