We had a great time in Episode 015 talking about electrification in the railroad industry, but we had forgotten to talk about a few of the more interesting ones. This episode covers electrifications on the Virginian and Norfolk & Western Railways in Virginia, the Boston & Maine in Massachusetts, the Detroit, Toledo, & Ironton in Michigan, and how Henry Ford could have changed the rail industry.
