I'm starting a new thread to capture information and images on USA Trains American Series Woodside Refrigerator Cars. These are normally in the series R1600 to R16499 range. Unfortunately these cars were custom made for clients of USA Trains and as such don't carry model numbers. To start off with here are couple of Texas & Pacific that I believe were produced for the "trains Collectors Association TCA.

I bought that for my cousin when he was 2 years old! I wonder if he still has it. I hunted like mad for that crayola boxcar for him.
How long ago did you buy that crayola for your cousin. I've had mine a couple of years now and I paid a hand full of C notes to get it.
You know, I can't remember. Seems like I bought it around summer of last year from a dealer at a train show but I really cannot remember. I'm going to call my aunt and see if she remembers.
