Little is known about the inception of the company, other than prior to the freeze. It is known to have built bridges in Serbia therefore presumably offering train service there. Wilford was apparently Chicago's most powerful and had parties on his trains for days. Melanie Cavill was contracted by Mr. Wilford to design a Luxury Liner, the Wilford Industries Global Express. The company first developed and constructed a Prototype Engine nicknamed Big Alice, Melanie Cavill then built the Eternal Engine for the Global Express. Both Engines used Perpetual Motion Technology. This Liner (which earned the nickname, Wilford's Dreamliner) would cruise a 318,000km long track, stretched across the globe. Many major cities were included in this railway track, including Moscow, Berlin, Paris, Jerusalem, Bangkok, Singapore, Sydney, Bejing, Anchorage and Panama City.
