Reefer Operations on Model Railroadswith an emphasis on the ATSFMarch 5, 2003 |
| Red Caboose Mather 37' meat reefer
Mather rebuilt shorter stock cars into reefers, and this is the result. They ran under their own MUNX and MRRX markings plus leasing then to Agar, Hygrade, Hunter, Levi, Kohrs, Oscar Mayer, Peyton, and Rath. The Armour, Morrell, Cudahy, Swift, and Wilson cars are bogus. PFE R-30-12-9
There are 40' wood sheathed cars. Again one must be careful as to when cars of this design operated. WP leased 2000 of these cars which were reconditioned in the 30s.
