This 51’ rivet side mechanical reefer is aluminum with black lettering and runs on Roller Bearing trucks. This mechanical reefer was built in 1954, in an order of 50 cars. As one of the first mechanical reefers, these cars used an integrated diesel engine, insulated walls, and plug doors to maintain cold temperatures that could previously only be accomplished by blocks of ice.
