company cars should have a look at the Carling Car.






Overview
In the 1920's, the Pfaudler Company and General American Car
Company manufactured hundreds of wood sheathed, insulated milk
cars. Designed as bulk milk carriers, the cars were built around
two 6,000 gallon glass lined tanks and a brine cooling system
designed to keep the milk at a constant 38 degrees Fahrenheit.
Riding on passenger car trucks, these unique cars were often
painted Pullman green to match the passenger cars of the era. The
special purpose Pfaudler Cars hauled bulk milk shipments well into
the 1950's.
