Any idea on the refrigerator car?

Anonymous said...

At first look the car suggests REA express but REA marked the right side 'express refrigerator' and that far left letter looks like a 'K' to me.

I did a quik google search of milk refrigerator cars and found https://riverraisinmodels.com/libraryData/milktrains.pdf On page 24, it shows a green paint, the rounded roof and the grab bars rather than a ladder - a GPEX express car.

Theres no logo or writing on the sides but who knows what got added after it left the shop.

Thanks, should have figured that out - GPEX (Hood) cars marked “Milk Refrigerator” on pages 29, 34, 35 of volume 1 of the Liljestrand Nehrich ‘Railway Milk Car’ books

This picture was taken at White River Junction.

I hadn't paid much attention to the milk car, my eye was drawn to the small car stops at the end of the spur ....... and a junction main track just feet beyond them !
