Rolling Stock 1979-1983
I recently went through my freight car photos and sorted them into two separate albums, pre and post 2000.
The pre album is mostly scanned Kodachromes taken around 1980, about 145 images to date.

Zoomed in, the reporting marks kind of look like AT&SF, and the herald on the far end looks vaguely circular, but I am not claiming to have properly identified the car . . .

Re: Testors Decal Printing Results
I've printed black decals on Microscale "Trim Film" on the color cube at work and I am quite satisfied with them. They don't dissolve in water or decal setting solution.

Claus,
This looks to me to be a car from the Intercolonial Rwy. and I, too, believe
it is one of the Dominion cars. But what is that equally interesting 1 & 1/2 door,
6 over 7 end, steel sheathed

Re: Photo-etched parts
I will third that statement. I have purchased both decals (ATSF Dyno 29) and grab iron jigs from Peter. He is excellent in both communication, and quality of product.
Thanks for your efforts

Re: Can anyone identify the road name for the car whose end we see prominently in this photo?
From the appearance of the grab iron attachments on the left corner, this seems like a Dominion/Fowler car design. There is also a sill step on the left side of the car end. Is this a predecessor road

I bought an ALPS 500 when they first came out, tested it once and then never used it. Should I sell it?

Re: Ice refrigerators (Frozen Turkeys)
One other thing I may add to this string, (even though the title remains Ice refrigerators)
in a recent read of Railway Age, it notes that there were only 152 Mechanical reefers in service in 1952.
