They are going to stop railway locomotive production, too. I wonder if they're going to sell the two divisions off.

I know that they are selling the Lighting Division off. It is their oldest business by the way.

I'm from Lynn MA, which had 2 G E plants. I am the only member of my family who did not work in the G E. I worked on the G E , in college I worked for a roofing company, which did the G E.
Marv, does this mean you and I are now in the dark???

This is a small World. I worked for GE Lighting and lived in Boston. When I first moved to Massachusetts, all of my belongings were in storage up in Lynn, MA. We'll never be in the dark Edafan! Don't you know we are the light! LOL!

I use LED light bulbs anyway. Saves tons of money on electric bills, and I can keep them on 24/7.
