The final episode of The HISTORY Channel's series The Men Who Built America, featuring a young engineer called Henry Ford airs this Sunday.
I've been watching this series and have really enjoyed it. And Im actually alittle excited with anticipation for the last episode.

The above video opens with several views of the Rouge truck plant. The plant is open for tours originating at the HENRY FORD MUSEUM where you are bused to the Rouge. The tour includes significant sites including the "Battle of the Overpass" site, and the new "green" plant roof. Uou then enter the plant to watch trucks being made.
Anybody who visits the museum should set aside a couple of additional hours to take the tour. It is well done.
 
Really like the way everything ties in ,railroads to oil or rather kerosene, then to steel, steel to buildings, electric power threatening the kerosene industry,Rockefeller looking at an alternative for his oil empire,what about the byproduct of kerosene refining that is being dumped in the rivers and fields,what is it called gasoline? Enter Henry Ford segment.
