There are a couple M55’s and a dozen or so M55B’s, there are no M55A’s in this run. A re-run in the future may or may not happen, I have lots of other projects I want to get to first.

Our newest mini kit release is the Pacific Fruit Express R30/40-9 Reconditioned Plywood Side Reefer.
After years of service, many of Pacific Fruit Express’ R-30/40-9 cars required re-sheathing. Numerous R-30/40-9s received plywood side sheathing in the late 1940s. The ends retained their tongue and groove sheathing boards. This mini kit provides the plywood sides to replace those in the Red Caboose Model Kit.
Documented car nos. include 93151 shown above, as well as 91593, 94242, 94789 (page 247, PFE, 2nd Ed.,) and 64771 (a -21 rebuild). For more info, see page 148 of PFE, 2nd Ed.
This was first offered as a gift to attendees of the 6th edition of the Hindsight Virtual RPM in January of 2021. We’ve made a few tweaks, adding a couple of components to make it easier for the modeller.
The kits come with resin sides, etched hatch supports, an extra cross bearer and decals.
More B&O M55’s and M55A’s have been added to stock.
Also another batch of GTW Emergency Gon’s have been made up.
