Hi Dan,

The car was built by the WW&F Railway. Go to www.wwfry.org and you will see some photos of the completed car in a mixed train on the main page slide show. For construction details click on the Discussion Forum button, then go to the Work and Events chapter. The "Reefer 65 - Official Work Thread" has photos and info on the car. Some of the oak (for sills and studs) and white pine (flooring) was from trees cut on railroad property. The car is the first new n.g. milk car built in Maine in 99 years. It is now on display by the pier in Wiscasset.

Stewart
