R-70-15 Reefers
A roster of the R-70-15 class reefers is provided as follows:
UPFE 452001-452750 SPFE 452751-453500
These 50'-0" inside length mechanical refrigerator cars were all built to the same basic design by PC&F in 1965 and featured 4022/4042 ft3 capacity and a 9'-0" door opening. Note that this body style is sometimes referred to as 57', however, the mechanical refrigeration eqipment takes up space on one end of the car leaving a 50' usable inside length for loading. Harry Wong has a good writeup regarding the release of a Red Caboose model of this class including info on modernizing the model to a late 1970's appearance.
