Wikipedia has nice timeline at the end of its article about refigerator cars: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerator_car">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerator_car</a> According to this timeline the last ice bunker cars were built in 1956, the first mechenical reefers with diesel-aggregates entered revenue service in 1957, and the last ice cooled reefers were retired in 1971. I don't know how accurate Wikipedia is so you might check other sources. Regards, Volker
