Pulpwood Cars

[Kamex]

I've recently unlocked Sylva and I can now take the contracts that require pulpwood. But there are two different cars you can buy for pulpwood. They both appear similar on the surface. Can anyone suggest which of the two variants to buy, how many and why?

Thanks.

I use the flatcars in sets of 4. They have the same capacity and price, but the flat cars are lighter. Four is a good length in my opinion as they fit into the pulpwood sidings. The loading time is about 6 - 7 hours.

I believe the older style pulpwood cars are a bit shorter and can therefore have more of them set to load and unload at a time in certain circumstances. It's not a huge difference, but in many cases, an extra car can be squeezed in. The number bought depends largely on industry input/output. You're going to want at least enough to have one set loading and one set unloading at all times.

You'll eventually will need 40, 20 loading/20 unloading. which one is really preference. Only practical difference is empty weight.
