Thrall Car Manufacturing Company
Thrall Car Manufacturing Company was a manufacturer of railroad freight cars in Chicago Heights, Illinois from 1917 to 2001. The company was sold to Trinity Industries in 2001.
==Company history==
A.J. Thrall established the Union Wagon Company in 1916, selling used and reconditioned rail car components.〔The Duchossois Group, Elmhurst, IL. ("The History of the Duchossois Group." ) Accessed 2013-11-10.〕 This became the Thrall Car Manufacturing Company in 1917.〔Chicago Historical Society. ("Duchossois Industries Inc." ) ''Encyclopedia of Chicago.'' Accessed 2013-11-10.〕 By mid-century, under the leadership of Richard L. Duchossois, the company focused on building specialized freight cars, such as double-stack containers, covered hoppers, autorack cars and single-level trailer cars. In the 1980s Thrall acquired five competing car manufacturers〔 and became the largest such manufacturer of these cars in the United States. In 1984 Duchossois purchased the remaining shares of the company owned by the Thrall family, and the company then operated as part of Duchossois Industries.〔 In the 1990s Thrall had a production capacity of over 16,000 freight cars per year, with more than 3,000 employees.〔
From 1997 a European subsidiary ''Thrall Europa'' manufactured wagons in York, UK (Thrall Europa, York works, closed 2002).〔See Holgate Road carriage works, York §Post-privatisation (1989-).〕 In 2000 Thrall Europa acquired the railway vehicle manufacturer ČKD Vagonka Studénka (Slovakia), renamed ''Thrall Vagonka Studénka, a.s.''. (In 2006 Trinity Industries sold off its European operations to International Railway Systems)
The closely held company was sold to Trinity Industries, based in Dallas, Texas, in 2001. The company was subsequently renamed Trinity Rail Group, LLC.〔Inside View, Inc. (2013). ("Trinity Rail Group, LLC." ) Accessed 2013-11-10.〕
