ART ice service decals

[David Boeschen]

I’m trying to recall whether there was a decal set made for the ART ice service reefers in HO. The cars were painted boxcar red, and were basically non-revenue cars used to move ice to remote locations.

I’ve found a good clean photo of one, but so far I haven’t found a decal in my inventory. The lettering would be white.

I have an Accurail ART ice service reefer. It’s boxcar red with white lettering. How prototypical it is, can’t say, but it’s good enough for me.

I think it’s safe to say that the Accurail car is pretty close. It’s a wood-side car if I recall. There are a couple of specific ART details that are not on it, but as a three-foot model it’s good. And there were a lot more wood-side cars converted to ice service than steel ones.

It’s a steel car.
