Walthers Announces Proto 1000 Newsprint Cars

 Developed in the 60s by Canada's National Steel Car Company, NSC 50' Newsprint Box Cars were designed to haul huge rolls of paper produced by Canadian mills to printing houses across the continent. Features of these cars included a smooth interior and completely leakproof body to prevent damage to the paper rolls during transit. Beginning in 1967, almost 3,600 were built through 1971 and most are still in service today.
