Well, you know the saying -- the best way to make a small fortune
blacksmithing is to start with a large one...

And it was only losing $2 Million a quarter, making simple stuff like  
train cars...
Imagine how much money you could lose making really complicated, time  
consuming stuff like ornamental iron.

The Trenton Works railcar shop is for sale and proposals are being
solicited by Ernst & Young. Six shop buildings, 2 warehouses, power
plant, 2 admin buildings.  800# hammer, a whole lot of heavy duty
forging, cutting, bending, welding, pressing, punching, lifting
equipment including CNC gear.  Yow! Almost as good as that naval
maintainance ship, only, ummmm, a little less portable.

Ten miles of railway within the plant, 130 years of history and the
Nova Forge Corporation right next door.  How can you pass it up?
