Just looked up the entry for Lexa.
“Lexa is one of the principal icing points for perishable produce being shipped from the Rio Grand Valley through St Louis”.
So an icing dock at Lexa would handle strings of ART reefers.
Not local, but could ne interesting to model and talk about ice reefers and how that changed the eating habits of the nation.
