We offer three types of temperature controlled equipment:
64’ Mechanically Refrigerated Boxcars
(64’ REEFERS)
Our 64’ interior-length boxcar is better suited for perishable commodities that will “weigh out” a railcar before the products “cube out” the available space in the car.
Ideal Commodities for a 64’ reefer are:
Cheese / Butter / Frozen Poultry / Frozen Pork / Frozen Beef / Fresh Potatoes / Fresh Onions / Beverages
72’ Mechanically Refrigerated Boxcars
(72’ REEFERS)
CTI’s 72’ interior-length boxcar is designed to carry perishable commodities that are lighter weight and require a maximum amount of interior volume.
Ideal Commodities for a 72’ reefer car:
Frozen French Fries / Frozen Vegetables – Bulk Totes / Frozen Vegetables – Finished Case Goods / Confectionary Products / All Light-Weight Packaged Goods
68’
Heavily Insulated Boxcars
(68’ INSULATED)
CTI’s 68’ Insulated railcar is manufactured with high density insulation and is specially designed for temperature-sensitive commodities. The cars do not have mechanical refrigeration, they are designed to protect commodities from freeze and reduce temperature fluctuations in transit.
Ideal Commodities for a 68’ insulated railcar:
Wine / Juice / Beer / Bottled Water / Canned and Jarred Goods / Any Commodity Needing Freeze Protection
