Have any REA cars been preserved? It seems like it would make a good addition to any major railroad museums passenger display.

Hi,

Right now the only Reefers I can lay my hands on are in my HO gauge collection. And yes, one of them is an REA reefer. By the way, I picked up a Baby Ruth reefer recently, and couldn't believe it was a reefer. Seems that chocolate covered candy bars need refrigeration during shipment, or else you have a lot of melted chocolate covered candy bars.
