Step 1: Search for company names

Companies in industries such as utilities, logging, tunneling, stockyards, bridging, and real estate are considered "off-topic."

Suggestions for finding company names quickly

  • Avoid spelling errors. USE WORD FRAGMENTS instead of whole words. Whole words will work, but word fragments are ALWAYS better!
  •  york cent huds  will find New York Central & Hudson River Rail Road Co.
  •  ohi bal wash  will find Washington Branch of the Baltimore & Ohio Rail Road Co.
  • Word order does NOT matter.
  • AVOID punctuation.
  • AVOID articles such as the, of, and, el, del, la, and los.
