But in a different way...Calling Mont! What a great photo. I would have to guess that the reefer is destined for use as a shed somewhere. How would the reefer have been attached to the tractor? The rear wheels of the tractor appear to be ahead of the end of the reefer. The bogies under the reefer look to be attached near the bolster. How were they attached? Regards Bruce Bruce F.

Are any of these prototype ATSF reefers still in existence that still have the ORIGINAL fishbelly CENTERSILL under them? I have seen more that 40 of them between Lubbock and Amarillo, and a few dozen more in New Mexico, but all had their centersills cut off (so they would sit flat on the ground). Surely one of these still exists with trucks under it?! Where? Thanks! A.T. Kott --- In STMFC@..., "Steve Lucas" <stevelucas3@...> wrote:

One exists at the Arizona Railway Museum in Chandler Arizona. A former Rr-W rebuilt to Rr-23. www.azrymuseum.org

Many thanks! I have visited that museum back in the early 1990's but did not see the ATSF reefer. Did measure parts of the SP C-9 2-8-0, however. Guess I'll have to plan a return trip. A.T. Kott --- In STMFC@..., Joseph Jacques <bowie1793@...> wrote:
