Varney Northern Pacific 40' Wood Refrigerator (Reefer) Car - With Metal Truck Set - Wood and Metal HO Scale Craftsman Train Kit, HO, R-45
Metal Model Kit, Box Condition: VG

Varney was one of the most known names in early HO model railroading. Gordon Varney was visionary in early business years.

Judging from the style of kit, this one is from the 1950s. Features all metal main parts that are factory painted and lettered; metal and plastic details, metal truck set and more. The kit has not been started. Inventoried complete with all parts and instructions present. The car sides and end are in 'excellent+' condition. Never started.
