Morrell Meats Wood Reefer (Restoration)

[TrucTrain55]

This is a old Train Miniatures Wood Reefer I bought several years ago and while I was restoring the New York Central Reefer thought I do this one also. I’ll be adding some Details West Ice Hatches I also added some Kaydee draft boxes and cleaned and repainted the old couplers, trucks, and undercarriage as well. Think I’m going to stop here tonight

Very nice! The trucks could use a bit more rust, though.

Thanks I thought about that and the couplers

I would have re-trucked them with better wheels. Other than that Excellent job. I'm a reeferholic myself with numerous styles and owner names.

After running it on the rails I didn’t like it so I think your going to be right. I’ve been a Reeferholic for years. Did you check out the others I restored?
