Miner Enterprises, Inc.
 PROFILE
For more than a century, Miner Enterprises has made draft gears for the railroad industry. The company's draft gears provide cushioning behind railcar couplers -- the connector parts that link railcars together. It also makes side bearings, which help control the ride and curving characteristics of railcars. Miner's major operation is a plant in Geneva, Illinois, which turns out more than 6,000 new and reconditioned draft gears and a range of other products each month. At its Wisconsin plant, subsidiary Powerbrace America makes discharge gates for covered grain, chemical, coal, and ballast hopper railcars, as well as hinges and locking bars for semitrailers. The Withall family owns the company.
