A few include car and vehicle (parts) production (and sometimes the full car), such as with the company known as BMW.

It was very common in the 1800s for people to be brought back to their place of birth for burial. After the Railroads came, it was very easy to ship a body quickly to another State or County.

However, the body must be prepared in accordance with State (or country) laws prior to transport into the other State or Country. For example, when service personnel are brought back from Afghanistan or Irag, the body has to have some preparation to retard decomposition until the body is flown to the US, transported to the person's hometown, and prepared for funeral or viewing.
