A ride above the rest. Ride the luxury Rails - Wilford Industries Global Express
— Wilford Industries

Wilford Industries is a large organization responsible for designing, building, and maintaining multiple trains, including Snowpiercer and secondary supply train Big Alice. It is unknown how many trains the company owns in total.

There are only a limited number of people aware of the company's leadership, and each plays a vital part in keeping order aboard the train.

History

Little is known about the inception of the company, other than prior to the freeze, Melanie Cavill was contracted by Mr. Wilford to design a Luxury Liner. This Liner was operational for one or more years[1] before the Freeze and would cruise a 318,000km long track, stretched across the globe. Many major cities were included in this railway track, including Moscow, Berlin, Paris, Jerusalem, Bangkok, Singapore, Sydney, Bejing, Anchorage, and Panama City.[2]

Wilford Industries' compound in Chicago.

Eventually, Mr. Wilford realized that climate change is unavoidable, through the CW-7 chemical agent, and he undertook steps to refit his Luxury Liner into an Ark. The company first developed and constructed a Prototype Engine nicknamed Big Alice, Melanie Cavill then built an Engine that used Perpetual Motion Technology. Wilford Industries Global Express became Snowpiercer, while Mr. Wilford sold tickets to finance this refit. Ultimately, his goal was not to save humanity but to live his lavish life as long as he could and was eventually taken out of the equation by Melanie Cavill.

It is currently unknown if the suspended animation technology used by The Drawers was developed by Wilford Industries, or if it was already commercially available technology.

Wilford Industries also built the Bering Strait Bridge for its train, the Himalaya Roundabout; called the Corkscrew (to turn the train around), the Mongols track; undulating efficient terrain (straight), a secondary line; test track over the Rocky Mountains called Neckbreaker and the Breslauer Weather Station in the Rocky Mountain's near the test track.

Trains

  • Snowpiercer - Luxury liner turned Ark that circles the globe.
  • Big Alice - Prototype Engine. Later designed as a secondary supply train.
  • Pirate train - 10 car train created from the front of Snowpiercer to rescue Melanie.

Trivia

  • Wilford Industries is the company behind Wilford Industries Global Express. A luxury ride around the world on board a luxury liner train
  • The company presumably had major facilities near Chicago, as both Snowpiercer and Big Alice were located there.
  • Unlike in the film Snowpiercer, the train owned by Wilford Industries was run by Melanie Cavill pretending to be Mr. Wilford, until being discovered.
  • Passengers sometimes greet each other by hand movement over their chest in the shape of "W".
  • Mr. Wilford recruited Melanie Cavill when she was 17, Jennifer Connelly who portrays Cavill was born in 1970, which means Wilford Industries existed at least from 1987 until the Freeze happened.
  • Wilford Industries motto is (Honor. Order. Work.).
  • Wilford Industries built The Wilford Industries Digital Automation System (The Engine's brain), and The Self Regulating Harmonic Module (The God Module).
