This
40’ double-sheathed wood reefer with vertical brake wheel is brown
with yellow decorated sizes and runs on Bettendorf trucks. Built
by American Car & Foundry in 1922 in an order of 50 cars,
The Crazy Water Company leased this and other cars from The American
Refrigerator Transit Company. “Crazy Water,” said to cure many
physical maladies, was mineral spring water boiled down until
only the mineral crystals remained.
