Trane Wins Railcar Refrigeration Contract for 25 Cars
The Trane Company receives a contract to supply complete refrigeration systems for 25 dual purpose railroad cars built by Pacific Car and Foundry in Renton Washington for Northern Pacific Railroad. The 10 ton units control zero to 70 degrees with humidity 90 to 95 percent and use a reverse air flow to reduce dehydration and weight loss. An evaporator coil redesign cuts defrost time from an hour to under 30 minutes improving efficiency and load condition upon arrival.
