Empire Builders: The Rust Belt (2024)
America's Mid West is opened up first by canals and then railroads, bringing fame and fortune to a handful of industry barons and work for millions of migrants from across the world. From Buffalo's Erie Canal to Pittsburgh's steel furnaces, Milwaukee's breweries and Chicago's meatpacking plants, this is the story of how the Mid West became the engine room not only of America, but the world.
Directed by Ian Cross.

In the first decades of the 20th century, innovations rolled out across the Rust Belt, from Ford's Model T to Harley Davidson's motorcycles. Two world wars propelled the region to new heights, supplying goods to a devastated world.
