I recently picked up one of these nice reefer cars without knowing too much about it. I was pleasantly surprised at the detail, quality, and substantial die-cast chassis it was built around. At 11.5" it seems to be a good scale match to my larger steam engines as well. I'd like to get more of these types of cars, but I've not been able to find out what production series this car came from. Did Lionel make a whole series of larger, die cast chassis reefers / box cars or was this Rutland reefer sort of a one-off? Thanks!
