If that is the case, the large motor division of GE (IIRC) is north of
Austin - they
had a longhorn steer in the front grass area of the plant. The motors
required an
extra heavy rail line to the site, a very over sized metal building
(NICE shop if we got the big bucks)
with a several hundred ton gantry crane. IIRC, they did the big
electric motors for trains,
ships and other toys.

I think it was in economic straits about the time we moved - maybe it is
up and going.

Igor doesn't seem to have much problem moving around big compressors
and stuff. He should be fine with a 30 hp motor :-D.

I wanted to run the lathe...
It could turn a complete locomotive.
