I am originally from Granite City and believe the listed owner of this engine is incorrect. While American Steel has facilities in Granite City they are unrelated to Granite City Steel. Granite City Steel (now part of US Steel) is a large integrated primary mill which converts iron ore into steel. American Steel is a much smaller foundry which uses scrap steel as its feed stock. I believe they mostly manufacture rolling stock equipment.

This ain't no 44 tonner either. Looks more like a 65 ton.
