The Japanese company own the property rights to the patents they have and are the only plant in the world that makes it from what I heard on that episode.
Thank you for that info, BOB2.
It took some digging to find it.
The Google search ["Japan Railway Journal" rail steel] [
www.google.com]
got me to this
Trains article [
cs.trains.com],
where a comment caused this Google search [Japan Railway Journal: “Japan's World-Class Rail and Wheels”] [
www.google.com],
which got me to this video [
www.youtube.com], which seems to be the one you described.
