Hendrickson and Kaminski's Billboard Refrigerator Cars shows several Northern Refrigerator Car Co. cars in the 3600 series. The standard portion of the lettering looks correct, and one of the captions is "NRC leased many refrigerator cars to small Wisconsin canning companies, as shown here,though each of these shippers were assigned only a small number of cars (sometimes, it appears, only one or two cars)." So if it is a real company during that period then it certainly could be a real scheme.

Their research might be somewhat better. Ted Schnepf On Monday, May 27, 2019, 9:11:05 PM CDT, Roger Huber via Groups.Io <trainpainter=yahoo.com@groups.io> wrote: Tony, Not sure! It appears to be a real company from my limited research. I saw a similar car on the Art Griffin site once. This O scale model is by MTH and we all know they are sticklers for accuracy!
