Hello everybody,
I am trying to find the number series for the reefer that are leased to McCains, Universal Foods, Carnation and the ones that say Arcticar.
The Arcti-cars were operated by General American, and have nothing to do with Cryo-Trans.
The Carnation cars were in CRYX series 1223-1272; the Universal Foods cars in series 1273-1322, and the McCain cars in series 2000-2074. Notice that I said, “were”–all of these cars are now gone, mostly rebuilt into mechanical reefers with the standard Cryo-Trans markings for such cars.
Thankyou for your help. I could have sworn that Cryo-Trans bought the Arcticars from GATX with GARX reporting marks that were re-stencilled. Is there another company that leased reefers from Cryo-Trans?
I’m pretty sure that Simplot just uses their own reporting marks and Lamb Weston doesn’t lease from Cryo-Trans…maybe. The only Lamb Weston reefers I have seen have XTRX reporting marks.
