Retired SFRD Reefer (Rr-46)


 

Retired SFRD Reefer (Rr-46)

A post by Peter Hayes on the Facebook Santa Fe Railway Historical & Modeling Society group.

He comments on this and two other less-detailed photos:

Santa Fe reefers in and east of La Junta, Colorado, that I found on August 20th, 2018. I always love finding these relics across the west!

My Notes:

Looks like this reefer was in M-O-W or work service before being retired. Class Rr-46reefer from Series 9870-10869. The cars in this class were rebuilt in 1948-49 from Classes Rr-X, -Y, -2, -3 and -4 reefers.

What can be seen are the reverse-opening hatch covers, high-mounted tack boards and swing doors.
