Tim, are you sure they are end doors and not reinforced ends. Those ends remind me of the reinforcement the NH did to their ice cars in company service.

Just a thought...

Yes it is a BAR ex-MDT reefer - But it appears that the BAR added access doors
on the end of this car! I have never seen good photos of their ends unfortunately. Some
of the ex-MDT cars had steel ends, which makes me wonder how many of the cars
had modified ends.

Hi List Members,
 
Nice 1952 image of a reefer at Montgomery Storage Philadelphia PA. The reefer side appears to be painted in a two color scheme, and has a herald but I do not recognize it right away. Is this a BAR reefer?
 
 
Enjoy!
