I really like MTH's 36' Premier wood sided reefers. The look just like the ones from Atlas but seem to be not quite as delicate. Atlas probably paints theirs better though.
Hard to say. I do like them very much, but I’ve purchased a few second hand that had broken stirrups. I’ve tried just about everything to reattach them, but haven’t figured out the best way to get a lasting bond. I think they are either brass or cast aluminum. They’re very thin and I can’t get anything to stick to them.
The stirrups are pretty delicate.
