Brewster is the location of the corporate headquarters and shops of the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway, both the [[Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway (1916-1988)|historic company]] and the [[Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway (1990)|current regional railroad]]. The WLE began producing locomotives at its Brewster shops in 1910, and boasted one of the finest [[steam locomotive]] producing facilities in the country. Over the years, the WLE built and rolled boilers and erected fifty of their own steam engines, a feat never tried by many larger and more famous railroads.  The Wheeling and Lake Erie Brewster Shops continue to perform contract repairs, upgrades and fabrication of locomotives and [[freight car]]s to this day.
