This "Icing Platform" kit by Suncoast is a classic in it's own right. The one I purchased will be used in combination with the Suydam Union Ice Company kit to supply an icing/re-icing facility for my perishable produce carried in my reefer block train. From the early 20th century until about 1957-60 when mechanical refrigeration came into wide use, the long strings of reefer block trains, carrying perishable produce to the major city markets were manually iced and re-iced during their journey. Since fresh produce is demanded and rotten fruits and veggies are not salable, what's a Railroad to do? Keep the produce in contact with the ice bunker equipped reefers and make good time between field and market. These facilities were built to fill that need.
