The Atlas Product Spotlight - O 40' Wood Reefer

The Atlas Product Spotlight - O 40' Wood Reefer

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. 

Available in 2-rail as well as 3-rail, these ready-to-run reefers have state-of-the-art detailing and construction.
