[quote user="NHTX"] It would be a very large packing plant that generated enough traffic to warrant its own ice plant. [/quote] PFE had a lot of smaller icing station called Ice Transfer Plant (ITP) where PFE didn't manufacture its own ice. In California it was bought from Union Ice Company. UIC even operated a number of ITPs for PFE. If you are interested you can read about PFE's reefers and operation in the articles published by Tony Thomson (Co-author of the above mentioned PFE-book) in Model Railroad Hobbyist magazines Sept.+ Oct. 2013 issues. They are a free download. Regards, Volker
