These are followed by a series of images showing the skyline of Pittsburgh the Fort Pitt Bridge and the sternwheeler Carbon docked at the shore. These are followed by photographs showing the manufacturing of immense Westinghouse Electric Generators showing them in various stages of assembly the factory floor workers the pulley driven power system for the plant power transformers rectifiers as well as the construction of large diesel generator motors. The excellent large images which follow show electric locomotives and Westinghouse brake systems being installed on locomotives including a New Haven Baldwin-Westinghouse Class EP-1 for the Boston & Maine Railroad with the AC pantographs prominent; a Juniata-Westinghouse Class DD-1 locomotive for the Pennsylvania RR fitted with shorter DC pantographs fitted on top; two different images of the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Baldwin-Westinghouse Class EP-3 electric locomotives which was built and delivered to run out of Three Forks MT in December 1919 and many others.
