RE: [CBQ] Re: team track - bananas

Note this is a multi-door reefer AND consigned to a 'Fay Fruit' in California.  
Older reefers had the extra door for the LCL (per White's opus on reefers) as 
was not necessary to expose too much of the load to ambient temps when taking a 
few cases/bunches/sides or whatever the cooled commodity was.  Great example 
too of a 'billvboard' reefer - tks Ken!

Speaking of bananas here is a picture of bananas being unloaded from 
a boat into FGE reefers back in 1910.
