In particular the Pullman Standard or PS-1 design was one of the most popular and was widely used by North American railroads. Pullman had been making freight cars for more than half a century when it hit a home run with the PS-1. Introduced in 1947, it set the standard for postwar American freight cars\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWhat made the PS-1 a landmark was its welded construction — an area in which Pullman led the industry. In addition to lighter weight, welding offered superior strength and better resistance to weather and corrosion than contemporary riveted cars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eLike the EMD diesels that became ubiquitous on American railroads, the PS-1 was part of the postwar shift away from customized, railroad-specific locos and cars toward standardized designs produced in large quantities on efficient assembly lines. No wonder the PS-1 was soon followed by the highly successful PS-2 covered hopper, PS-3 open hopper, PS-4 flatcar, and PS-5 gondola.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Atlas O Premier Rolling Stock:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAtlas O Premier Rolling Stock is prototypically accurate and includes a wide array of car types, from box cars, to passenger cars to cabooses.
