Just for clarity, the BREX did have steel-sided reefers. The Walthers model is an OK stand-in but should have a silver roof. I agree that the Accurail car is a better model.

The photo of car 74631 shows a Silver roof however the Walthers car is a rivited steel side and not the wood siding of that class. A better investment for your reefer fleet would be the Accurail kits as they are actually modeled after an actual CB&Q car. There are a few detail enhancements that would make that car a more accurate model.

Scott,
Here is a photo pf a wood Q reefer, with a silver roof and red ends. Most of the other reefers seem to have red ends, too. Check the Flickr album on the BRHS website for additional reefer photos.
