    Wow Lee, that is some big difference. That is going to be a beauty when you git 'er done!
    Will it be road specific or a generic reefer car?

          Nice progressLee, Is this a mechanical reefer or will it have hatches for ice? Cheers, Rick H.

            That's some seriously nice work Lee. What's a Reefer? I work on the railway in the UK so I was wondering how it compares with anything we do or have used.

              Mick, I believe reefer is an American term for a refrigerated truck / trailer / freight carriage.

                        Rick. Thanks Wood Reefers are mostly Ice bunks. These were phased out by the 60s. Thanks for the complement

                        Mick. Andy said it all

                        Peter. Thanks for stopping by and the complement I’m glad you like it it means a lot from you so I must be doing something right

                        Ralph. Thanks for the complement sounds like a man with experience with a Reefer lol

                        Tim. Thanks for stopping by and the complement and your right about that and knowing you made it makes it better

                        Guys
                        Thanks for the likes and complements I’m sorry I’m not building Military at this time I just don’t have the interest at moment. I need to get some things done on the layout I’ve neglected for years

                          Modelling is modelling Lee irrespective of subject, its good to have a change of focus.

                              Like Mick says +1 I don't have any sort of layout, so I'm more than happy to watch your develop. Nice work on the wagon.
