  • (PD) Photo: Unknown The interior of a typical ice-bunker reefer from the 1920s; the wood sheathing would give way to plywood within twenty years.

  • (PD) Photo: William B. Barry A Swift refrigerator car has reached the end-of-the-line at East Orange, New Jersey. The car has been repainted and was photographed in mid- or late-1937, after the use of "billboard" advertising on freight cars had been banned by the Interstate Commerce Commission, and such cars could no longer be accepted for interchange between roads.
