About

Matthias W. Baldwin (1795–1866) was an entrepreneur and engineer. They were born in Elizabeth Township.

In context

Baldwin Locomotive Works was founded in 1825 and closed in 1972, after 147 years. Among the 13 other locomotive manufacturing companies we hold, those that closed lasted a median of 89 years, so this one outlasted most of them.
