Hanrahan Reefer

Here’s a shot of my NG Hanrahan reefer. Need to get decals, trucks, and couplers on it.

Looks very nice!

The trucks are in the mail…

That’s big!

Yep, 40 footer in 1:20, 24" long without the couplers.

You’re on your own for couplers :wink:

Got em somewhere in the mess called “My shop”

Found the couplers, and the trucks just arrived. Now where’s the #&$ cable for the decal printer?

OK, Bob, I had to check to see if you got the hatches right. :slight_smile: You did. Thot mebbe you were hiding em. :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Is this a kit, or scratchbuilt?

Nice!!

Phil Dippell (philsnarrowgauge.com) did a one-off kit for me for it. I had to tell him where to cut the double doors, and what hardware to include (and not include). I had to add my own end platforms, and Ill do a different roof walk than what he supplied (to match my other rolling stock).

Exceptionally nice Bob! The Hanrahan has always been a favorite of mine. I built one in HO in Colorado Midland livery, especially colorful with the Indian herald.

What road name is yours going to be?

Dual-zone climate control? :slight_smile:

Looks great!

Later,

Bob i’m not sure that will fit through my tunnel curve section, can you send it over so I can check for clearances?

I’ll send it back if it doesn’t fit!

I’m lettering mine for Bruce’s J&BRR. I like the color scheme he did hist 40 footer in:

That’ll be nice, nice, nice!

That looks great,–“bruce chandler green” is a great color.
