The Fall of Baldwin Locomotive Works | From the Leader in Steam to Defunct | History in the Dark

Baldwin Locomotive Works had a humble beginning as a machine shop started by Matthias W. Baldwin in 1825. Stumbling into the growing railroad locomotive market, Baldwin would become the number one producer of steam locomotives over the following decades and well into the 20th century. However, a few key short-sighted decisions would lead to the companies swift and sudden collapse as diesels began to replace steam locomotives and left Baldwin with very little to offer. 0:00 - Intro 1:54 - Beginnings 5:19 - Success in the Market 8:54 - The Assumptions 14:42 - Ignorance and Complacency 20:13 - An Impossible Battle 25:48 - Dying Breaths 27:45 - Never Forgotten "Baldwin Locomotive Works (BLW) was an American manufacturer of railway locomotives from 1825 to 1951. Originally located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, it moved to nearby Eddystone in the early 20th century. The company was for decades the world's largest producer of steam locomotives, but struggled to compete when demand switched to diesel locomotives. Baldwin produced the last of its 70,000-plus locomotives in 1951, before merging with the Lima-Hamilton Corporation on September 11, 1951, to form the Baldwin-Lima-Hamilton Corporation." 🚂 Further reading 🚂 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldwin... https://www.american-rails.com/baldwi... 🟢Join this channel to get access to perks:    / @historyinthedark   🟢Patreon -   / darknessthecurse   🟣Discord -   / discord   🔴Cameo - https://www.cameo.com/darknessthecurse 🔵Facebook -   / history-in-the-dark-109003305113711   🟢Donations - https://streamlabs.com/edgerabbit/tip 🔴Reddit -   / historyinthedark   🔴Tiktok -   / historyinthedark   🟣Instagram -   / historyinthedark   🔵Twitter -   / darkthecurse   🟣Merch -    / @historyinthedark   🟣Twitch -   / edgerabbit   Other channels: 🟢Prehistory in the Dark:    / @prehistoryinthedark   🟣Gaming and Fanfic Readings:    / @darknessthecurse   🟣History Stuff:    / @historyinthedark   👔Merch: https://streamlabs.com/edgerabbit/merch --- I WRITE BOOKS!
