Based on the previous RR-54 class of Boxcars, the RR-56 class incorporated lessons learned from the older series of cars to build \u0026amp; operate its 1st large fleet of Mechanical Reefers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RR-56 were classed as “All Purpose” MTC (Mechanical Temperature Control) cars by the Santa Fe Railroad. The fleet numbered 200 cars numbers 2000 – 2188, 2500 – 2510 in the series. Delivered with SFRD reporting marks, these were changed in 1963 to SFRP but retained their original car numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1958, Santa Fe built the RR-60 \u0026amp; RR-61 class of Reefers.
