Unread postby QcRail » Wed Dec 23, 2015 2:17 pm

The project is slowly evolving. Thanks to Mainlines who updated the .goe files to reflect the typical TPIX car numbering location (actually there are two schemes).

Herewith is an updated of the white Tropicana Reefers with different logo, lettering scheme and end color. More are in the works, but the Holidays Season shall slow activities in the paint shop !*roll-laugh*!

Actually the NERR version of the mech. reefer is a different reefer - longer (64ft. inside lenght) with its refrigeration unit on the outside of the box and goes by the name of : 64ft. Trinity Reefer and it replaces the 57ft mech. reefers of the 1970s.
