So, while checking out the digital version of the TCA news (haven't received the printed copy yet), it shows 2 36' Woodsided reefers for Hood's Milk that are supposedly being made by MTH.  The artwork looks more in-line with what usually comes from Atlas.  I don't believe Atlas acquired the tooling for the MTH Premier 36' reefers.

Thoughts?

Atlas has no need for MTH 36' reefer tooling, Atlas has had their own superb 36' reefer tooling for many years. Yes those TCA MTH 36' Hood reefers are very good looking but they are not milk reefers, they are Hood's Egg reefers. There are a host of dealers having MTH special run 36' reefers on preorder.

I was going to say that I have seen neither hide nor hair about them, and I too have ordered them, but did just see the listing in the National Headquarters news that I just received today. 

I collect MTH 36' reefers, and there are several that have been announced and are on pre-order.  I presume, like what happened a few months ago, that they will all come in together in the same container.  Knowing nothing about it, I also presume that there are still another 25+ cars to be announced before we will see any.
