From the point on the hammers in the hanging tool box perhaps they are used to break up any large chunks of ice.

Looks to me more like a workman's toolbox that has been hung by a convenient nail to keep it from being under foot.

It shows a worker top icing head lettuce in a refrigerator car. To the right, hanging on the wall, appears to be a tool box. Would this have been a common item used to secure dunnage and the lining in the refrigerator car?
