High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Rhode Island Locomotive Works was a steam locomotive manufacturing company of the 19th century located in Providence, Rhode Island. The factory produced more than 3,400 locomotives between 1867 and 1906, when locomotive production there was shut down. The locomotive works employed about 1400 men, and had an annual capacity of 250 locomotives. In 1901, the RI Loco Works merged with seven other locomotive manufacturers to form the American Locomotive Company (ALCO). After locomotive production ceased, ALCO automobiles and trucks were manufactured in the Providence plant from 1906 until 1913. The old RI Loco Works plant, along with the adjoining Nicholson File and United States Rubber Company buildings, is currently the center of a $333 million commercial and residential redevelopment project.
