- General Electric Company Catalog, "Electric Locomotives: Catalogue No. 4," 1893 - At the turn of the 20th century, General Electric manufactured several models of electric locomotives for use in underground mines -- where smoke and soot from steam locomotives was dangerous and impractical. These small mine locomotives collected electricity from overhead lines or third rails that ran alongside the track. GE also built larger electric locomotives for use with conventional railcars aboveground.

- Detroit, Toledo & Ironton Railroad Employees with Electric Locomotives, July 1925 - Under Henry Ford's ownership, the Detroit, Toledo & Ironton Railroad built a 15-mile branch from its mainline at Flat Rock, Michigan, to the Ford Rouge plant in Dearborn. Electricity generated at the Rouge powered the line via overhead wires. Ford's Highland Park plant built two electric locomotives for the DT&I in 1925-1926. Together, the two locomotives produced around 3,800 horsepower.
