1800 R-30-1/2 40' REEFER, S.P. U.P. PFE 1801 R-30-1/2 REEFER ORIG. PFE Price: $30.00 Shipping: $0.00 Part Number: 1801 Qty: ERAS: 00s 10s MODELS: R-30-1 and -2 reefers as built and as run into the 'teens. ROADS: PFE S.P. U.P. Built on the same underframe as the B-50-1/2/4 box car, these reefers were the first 6,600 installed on the newly formed PFE. The classes were distinguished only by externally invisible differences in ice bunkers. Delivered before the Safety Appliances act, the cars were upgraded in the early 'teens with ladder grabs on the ends and sheathing bolts on the sides. Cars used in express service were painted green with gold lettering. Kit 1801 features the as-delivered and 1909 lettering styles, carrying the cars up to about 1917 when all would have been modernized and repainted. Unlike previous versions of the kits it models the pre-safety appliance version only but adds much more detail such as positionable hatches, drains and correct brake rigging.
