The $95-million GE Manufacturing Solutions locomotive assembly facility was completed in December 2012, with work led by contractor KBD Group.
The assembly plant was created in an unoccupied 600,000-sq-ft facility located next to a Burlington Northern Santa Fe rail line in North Fort Worth. The building was constructed before the commercial real estate market crashed, and it was expanded to 920,000 sq ft for this project, including 10,500 sq ft for chemical storage.
