Description
HO-scale Pacific Fruit Express R-40-28 refrigerator cars in the 1957 scheme, six-pack, are plastic models designed for HO layouts to faithfully reproduce PFE’s late ice-cooled reefers and to help model railroaders recreate authentic mid‑century freight scenes.
Based on prototype blueprints and field measurements, the cars feature separate wire grab irons, correct running boards and brake wheels, and accurate cooling fan housings per road number. The roof hatches are positionable, and the fleet rides on free-rolling trucks with turned metal wheels and Rapido Lincoln-Washington semi-scale metal couplers. The paint and decoration are precise, with multiple road numbers available for each scheme, enabling realistic, varied consist-building on a layout.
