SFRD Rr-39 Side View Photo Needed

Nelson Moyer
 

The RCW SFRD kits have two style fan housings, and without a good side view photo of a Rr-39, I don’t know which one to use. Also, the  Rr-35 has a single step center sill step, while the Rr-40 appears to have a two-step center sill step. Hopefully, one of you will be willing to send a photo showing  the side and the fan housing and center sill step. A cropped photo is fine as long as it shows the fan housing and center sill step.

Thanks, Charlie. Those two photo answer both parts of the question, and they are very good photos to add to the collection. It’s really helpful to get these two relatively high resolution photos. All my SFRD photos are lower resolution, and it’s hard to see details and read small lettering.

A few more photos. Notice that Tim O'Connor's photo, taken in 1957, shows the reefer still had the reverse-opening hatch covers. This was eight years after Santa Fe started using mechanical icing equipment on its icing platforms. And the car has swing doors. The Calisphere photo shows conventional hatch covers and a sliding plug door.
