Reply to "Any scale model REA express reefers WITHOUT the red diamond herald ever made?"

Jim,

I did a search of the forum before I posted, looking for non-RR specific REA cars that fit my era.  Other than the GGD green and silver car of the REA one produced after WWII, there really isn't any.  The link you provided kind of supports this, as it shows a Seaboard and a Pennsylvania.  It is very hard to find the pre-1953 color scheme of Pullman Green body with black ends and roof, and no herald and no railroad name.  It is even hard to find a picture on the web.   They all have the post-1953 "Railway Express Agency" red diamond herald or the post-1961 "R E A" over a large white X herald.  This looks like another repaint project in the future.
