40' Wood Refrigerator Car - Assembled -- Western Fruit Express #72065 (yellow, black)

This highly detailed model is based on the 40' wood refrigerator cars built by Pullman for the Northern Refrigerator Car Co. in 1930. With its rooftop ice hatches, USRA-style fish belly underframe and vertical brake shaft, it is representative of the thousands of similar cars that were built during the "Billboard" era of American railroads. These ready-to-run cars feature accurate painting and printing including door hinges, ladders, grab irons and end straps; opening roof hatches; realistic handle and latch detail; wood grain finish detail on car body; and 40-ton friction bearing trucks with AccuMate(R) couplers.
