Nissen Wagon Works began operation in 1834 and stopped operations in the 1940s. Founded by John Philip Nissen, the company produced many wagons that were used for agricultural and general transport. Nissen was located near Waughton, which is now a part of the city of Winston-Salem. Learn about the company and the height of production, which at the time Nissen produced up to 50 wagons daily and became one of the South’s largest manufacturers at the height of production. This presentation is hosted by Larry Neal, who has served several years as a historian at the North Carolina Transportation Museum.
