GC10NYC PT2

GC10NYC continues...

As noted last week, there are a lot of refrigerated containers in the train. Here, an AXSUN box rides atop a NFI reefer, with a White Arrow reefer atop a Swift dry box. Tiger Cool Express reefers are behind them.

More Tiger Cool reefers and a Cold Train Intermodal unit, followed by a pair of White Arrow boxes, then begins the block of  C.R. England reefers.

The string of C.R. England reefer containers continue. This is the modern-day version of the classic reefer trains of the past -only with stacked 53' containers instead of strings of 40' ice-cooled reefers! Perishable traffic on the rails lives on!

A lot of western produce is travelling to eastern markets on this train, as shippers increasingly embrace the intermodal concept.

A pair of AXSUN containers and a Cold Train Intermodal reefer join the C.R. England units. And if you weren't sure this was a priority train from the large number of reefer containers, how about the string of FedEx Intermodal boxes behind them?

More next week, including a closer look at the refrigeration units on some of the containers.
