Walthers Mainline 910-3775 50' AAR Mechanical Refrigerator Car - SFRC Santa Fe #56655 HO Scale

Get ready to cool down your HO railroad with Walthers Mainline's 50' Exterior-Post Mechanical Refrigerator Cars. These cars, inspired by those built at Burlington's Havelock Shops, were used on many railroads from the 1960s to the early 2000s. Ideal for servicing cold storage and grocery wholesalers, they were designed to carry all types of temperature-sensitive food. Key features of this 50' reefer include: a one-time run of these road numbers (order now as quantities are limited), accurate prototype dimensions, a diagonal panel roof with a separately attached exhaust stack, detailed plug doors and refrigerator grilles, late improved Dreadnaught ends, a see-through running board, a highly detailed underbody with fuel tanks and brake gear, 70-ton roller bearing trucks, correct 33' RP-25 turned metal wheelsets, and Proto MAX(TM) magnetic metal knuckle couplers.

Using your Walthers Mainline 50' AAR Mechanical Refrigerator Car is easy. Just place it on your HO scale railroad track and let it roll. It will fit right in with your existing trains and tracks. When it comes to handling, be gentle with the car, especially when attaching or detaching it from other cars. The couplers are sensitive, so take your time. To keep your refrigerator car in good condition, regularly clean the wheels and underbody. You can use a soft brush to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the paint or details. If you notice any loose parts, like the exhaust stack or grilles, use a small amount of glue to secure them. Also, store your car in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading. With proper care, your refrigerator car will serve your HO railroad for a long time.
