Freightcar America, Inc.
A maker of the big steel and aluminum freight cars that haul coal, grain, steel coils, and shipping containers across North American railroads, FreightCar America builds hopper cars, gondolas, flat cars, and boxcars for railways and shippers. Its roots stretch back to 1901 and to Bethlehem Steel's railcar works in Johnstown, Pennsylvania; the business was spun out in 1991 and took its current name in 2004. Fun fact: the founder famously turned down the chance to buy the division at first, replying "not a chance" before changing his mind and building the company.
