Description

By Jeff Wilson
In Modeling the Paper Industry, you'll see how papermaking works, learn how railroads serve huge paper mills, and gain insights and ideas on how to realistically model mill components, railcars, and traffic.

The paper industry has been a key source of traffic for railroads since the 1800s. From large rolls of newsprint bound to printers to the inbound loads of pulpwood, wood chips, clay, and more, railroads carry the products.

Now you can add this fascinating industry to your layout with Modeling the Paper Industry.

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!

This book is a key source for railfans and rail historians, as well as those who want to model the paper industry.
