Equipment Information

URTX 2034 is a refrigerated boxcar, or “reefer,” built to transport food products that required refrigeration. It has insulated sides and “bunkers” at each end where blocks of ice were loaded to keep the car’s interior and contents cool. Like many reefers, it was owned by a company which leased it out to railroads and industrial customers.
