The Walthers 932 - 2581 General American 40' Meat Reefer in HO Scale is a great addition to your collection. These all - steel reefers, used from the late 1940s to the 1970s, were designed to transport meat from packinghouses to big cities. They were among the most colorful cars on the rails. Unlike produce reefers, they had hooks and overhead rails matching those in slaughterhouses, speeding up loading and unloading. Operated by railroads and private owners, they offer a unique piece of railway history.

To use this HO scale meat reefer, simply place it on your model train tracks. You can connect it to other cars in your train set. When handling, be gentle to avoid any damage to the delicate parts like the hooks and overhead rails. To maintain it, use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior regularly. Keep it in a cool, dry place to prevent any rust or corrosion. If you notice any loose parts, use a small screwdriver to tighten them carefully.
