Berlin Mills Railway FMC Boxcar

In the late 1970s, the Berlin Mills Railway, a long-running industrial railroad serving the many paper mills of Berlin, NH, leased 50’ boxcars for paper service and painted them into a jade green scheme with white lettering. Some can still be seen today in their original paint, scattered far and wide. These boxcars traveled quite far distances and I have even seen a photo of one on a train in Mt. Shasta, CA. I have repainted the wonderful freeware 50' FMC boxcar from MaineLines, which is available on Railworks America. This model is easy to work with and a lot of fun to repaint, and best of all is it free so you will all be able to download any repaints of it. The Berlin Mills Railway repaint of the FMC 50' Boxcar will be available soon on Railworks America.

  1. I remember seeing a lot of these during my childhood. I lived in Gorham and Milan NH, among other places, and it takes me back to those days. I also am a fan of Railworks. Ralley75@comcast.net
