Somewhat related my father and his brother-in-law both worked for American Steel Foundries ASF in Chicago. My dad and mom were married late October 1929. I believe he started in the putrchasing department and my uncle was a draftsman. I believe both stayed employed through the Depression. I don't know how much of ASF's business was railroad but I think it was the lion's share.
