Swift #25041 |
| Description: |
Built by General American Transportation Company in 1954. The following is from museum signage about this car: Swift Refrigerator Lines operated a fleet of refrigerator cars used to transport Swift Packing Company’s meat and meat products throughout the nation. Earlier refrigerator (reefer) cars used ice to maintain the inside temperature necessary for safe transport of perishables. Mechanical reefers such as SRLX 25041 instead carried a small diesel motor to power a refrigeration system, eliminating the need for enroute servicing other than for fuel. Most ice reefers and their associated facilities were retired by the early 1970s. SRLX 25041 was used nationwide meat transport from an Oklahoma packing plant. It was donated by General American Transportation (the successor of SRLX) in 1971, and is currently used for parts storage." |
