My grandparents lived near a warehouse in Dayton, Ohio that was a frequent stop for train traffic. Frequently my grandfather would take whatever cousins were around over there and pick up rubber "washers" after Sunday dinner. Apparently they were used in some capacity to cushion the payload transported in/on the freight cars.
