Brookville Locomotive CompanyBrookville Locomotive Company, based in Brookville, Pennsylvania, United States manufactures railroad locomotives for industrial and light capacity switching needs. The company is now known as Brookville Equipment Corporation History The company began in 1918 by installing flanged railroad wheels on Ford trucks. The company soon began building gasoline-powered locomotives of their own during World War I. In order to keep up with technological advances through the 20th century, Brookville has had to constantly improve their products. Brookville's locomotives were the first to include planetary drive axles rather than chain drives. Brookville currently manufactures equipment used in mining, tunneling, and industrial and switching applications. External links
