Introduction

Atlas Master 20007002 HO Scale 50′ Berwick Boxcar Ontario Northland ONT 7879

In 1972, Berwick Forge & Fabricating, of Berwick, Pennsylvania began producing modern 50 sliding door box cars which featured their new corrugated non-terminating sine-wave ends. Initially sold to over 35 railroads across the nation, these box cars were an unfortunate casualty of the economic recession of the late 1970s and Berwick was forced to stop production in 1982. However, Berwicks 50 hauler found a place in railroad history through a strong second hand market that continues even today.
