Lionel pw-6352-1

LIONEL 6352-1 PACIFIC FRUIT EXPRESS OPERATING ICE CAR

 

This car was produced from 1955 through to 1957. It was built to accompany the 352 operating ice station accessory. It was sold both with the 352 and separately. It is interesting that Lionel chose to base the car on a box car instead of a refrigrator car. The roof hatch is on a moving rocker so that the accessory could easily slide open. The side of the car also opens to remove the ice cubes once they are inside. The car is made with a Type 2B 6464 body. It is unpainted, orange plastic with black heat-stamped lettering. Most of these cars had four lines of weight data printed on the opening ice hatch. However, some rarer versions have only three lines of printing. It came with diecast bar-end trucks and operating couplers on both ends.
