As with most Pemco rolling stock, there are four decorated
versions of its 60-foot Reefer.
To date, I have not seen the listed Coors model and it may
not exist. A TrainWorld price sheet, from the early 1980s, for Pemco items virtually mirrors Pemco's
catalog listing, but TrainWorld's list does not include Coors among available 60-foot Reefer selections.
This is one of a few unique examples among rolling
stock offered in Pemco's line. I have not been able to locate a prototype for this 60-foot Reefer model, but it
is a nicely designed car. The closest prototype appears to possibly be a 60ft. insulated plug-door box car. Pemco's
model does have refrigeration equipment cast into one of the car ends and ventilation screens appear on one side of the car.
