The Wason Manufacturing Company was one of the best-known builders of railway cars in Springfield, Massachusetts, a city that had long been a center of American industry. Founded in the mid-nineteenth century, the firm produced passenger coaches, street railway cars and freight equipment at a time when railroads and urban streetcar lines were expanding rapidly across the country. Its name on a works-front like this one signals the scale of manufacturing that once made Springfield a significant hub for transportation equipment.
