Just picked some of the new Atlas-O, 40', Refrigerated containers.

Seems like these were from new tooling. The doors don't open unlike the earlier 40' & 45' containers. It appears to me that the details on the non-functioning doors seem to have finer details now that they don't open.

The Blue Atlas packaging seems to be closer to the lighter shade from the boxes from the 2000's. I walked past these containers and a Coalveyor from the most recent run because the shade of the box misled me to think they were new-old-stock.

Also, I like that the boxes for these refrigerated containers are smaller than the boxes for the earlier 40' & 45' containers. I had 4 addresses in the last 4 years and I used to wish that the packaging for these model trains didn't take up so much space.

These are just my opinion,
