In this book, you'll learn about:
Paper industry history, how manufacturing processes have evolved, and how changes affected rail traffic
Specialized wood chip and pulpwood cars, plus mill traffic in boxcars, tank cars, and covered hoppers
How railroads switch paper mills
Selectively compressing mill components to make them fit more easily on a model railroad
And much more!
