Lettered for:DAIRYMEN's LEAGUE" MILK " Lettering 53' Wood Express Reefers add Variety to HO Scale Passenger Consists Wooden express reefers were a fixture of America's long-distance passenger trains from the late 1920s to the 60s. Hustling perishables to distant markets, they also carried mail, packages and nonperishable items. Easily identified by their unique shape and paint schemes, the cars also had heavy steel underframes, special trucks, brake gear, steam lines and signal equipment needed for passenger service. Walthers all-new models are faithful replicas of the General American Pfaudler seen on virtually every railroad, and look great with streamlined or heavyweight cars. Factory assembled and finely detailed, each model features Pullman or GSC trucks as appropriate for each roadname. Also included is a complete set of add-on wire grab irons for modelers who demand ultimate realism.A complete underbody captures all of the special brake gear needed for passenger service, as well as the bunker run-off chutes. High-speed trucks with metal wheelsets and working knuckle couplers round out the models. Rushing priority perishables between stations, express reefers were found at the front of the fastest passenger runs as well as on specialized mail and express trains. And when some highly perishable items such as milk were run, often as second sections of the most important passenger trains. Walthers is proud to roll out an Milk Tank Car that's right at home with your flagship streamliners.Each model features a highly detailed one-piece body with separately applied details including ladders and roofwalks. Separate wire grab irons are included for more realistic detail. A complete underbody captures all of the special brake gear needed for passenger service, as well as the bunker run-off chutes.
