Built by Trinity Rail starting in late 2003, the unique 64' Reefer Box Car was designed for increased capacity, shipping protection, and loading/unloading efficiency. Large enough to fit the equivalent of four 53' truck trailer contents, these excess height, plate 'F' cars have given new life to the once flourishing refrigerated movement of produce and other perishable goods.

Prototype Service (1993+)
With 1,500 of these massive cars in service, the 64' Reefers have literally taken tens of thousands of truck trailers off the highways, paving the way for lower-emissions and increased capacity handling. Furthermore, Railex Corporation has begun shipping produce in solid unit trains from their locations in Washington, California, and New York.

CEFX has 29 of these massive cars in service throughout the US on all major Class 1 railroads. Similar to the Union Pacific ARMN Reefers, the CEFX models feature a Thermo King Reefer unit, plus a different door. To faithfully recreate the prototype, we have tooled both the Thermo King Reefer and ASD door to give you the most accurate model possible.
