One side of WP PFE 55069 was given some light repairs and a temporary coat of paint both to protect the side of the car but to also dress it up for the Santa Clara County Fair. 8/1/19 - Photo by Eugene Vicknair


As a tribute to WP's original plan for the Western Refrigerator Line, the car side was painted yellow and a WRL logo was applied. This is the first time in 96 years this logo has been seen on a prototype railroad car.8/1/19 - Photo by Eugene Vicknair
