Review of Railroads & Ships of U.S. Steel DVD

 4.5 of 5 (2)
Railroads include: Birmingham Souther Railroad, Union Railroad, Elgin Joliet & Eastern Railway, Bessemer & Lake Erie Railroad, Cartier Railway, Duluth Missabe & Iron Range Railway. The Great Lakes ships include: USS Great Lakes Fleet consisting of Self-unloaders, Steamers, Classic Lakers and the massive 1000 Foot Super Lakers. The United States Steel Corp. was formed in 1901. The steel maker owned numerous large steel mills around the country and over the years also operated several transportation companies consisting of both rail and ship. Large amounts of raw materials were mined and transported by U.S. Steel affiliates including: limestone, coal, and iron ore products, which were then used by the mills in their steel making process. In this program you'll see six railroads and eleven ships in action as they were once a major part of U.S. Steel's transportation divisions.
