Atlas Rainier Beer reefers and SP&S F-3's by Andy Petersen Supply. I did my part in helping the Rainier Brewery's P&L during the early 60's and 70's.

While Never a fan of Rainier beer, those cars look pretty sharp!

The beauty of the cars and the support for the brewery are worthy of; "I'll Drink To That!"

Bill,

Are those the Atlas Main Line, with their beauty and extra detailing?

Ralph, they are the Atlas Master Line, manufactured exclusively for Andy Petersen Supply. Andy had 200 manufactured, sold out quickly. Andy is now working with Atlas for a Olympia Brewery reefer.

Bill,

Thank you,

I am sorry, you are correct, it is Atlas 'Master Line.'

I keep thinking of a railroad's 'Main' line.

Your reefers are beautiful with their color scheme, markings and fine detailing.

Enjoy,

Ralph
