In 1929, the Pennsylvania rolled-out 550 all-new class R50B Express
Refrigerator cars. In service, R50Bs were part of the Railway Express
Agency (REA) pool, travelling all over the U.S. in both passenger and
freight service until 1968.
Fully assembled and ready for service, the HO models come equipped with
accurate 2D-P5 four-wheel trucks featuring metal sideframes with plastic
details, and blackened 36" metal wheelsets. A separate roofwalk, door latch
bars and ladders are factory-installed for added realism. For those
modelers wishing to further detail their cars, a complete set of preformed
wire grab irons is provided, while molded starter points on the body
simplify drilling and installation.
