Atlas Model Railroad 20005791 HO Chicago North Western 50' GARX Reefer #50659

PROTOTYPE INFORMATION:

A joint effort from General American and Evans Products, these AAR class bunkerless refrigerator cars were produced beginning in the

early 1950s. Featuring two large horizontal panels flanking a 7’7” door, these cars had a very unique appearance due to the horizontal

rivet strip that joined the panels. With fewer seams than a standard box car, these cars were supposed to be less prone to rust and

leakage. By 1959, over 1,000 of these boxcars were produced.

MASTER MODEL FEATURES:

• 8’ plug with separate latch bars
