Two versions were made in brass back in 1988. You can still find them on occasion at shows or on eBay. Photos of the two versions can be seen at: http://www.riverraisinmodels.com/photogal.html One or two make a nice addition to any contemporary freight.

Also, Amity Star did a kit some years ago for a 53'(?) PFE outside-post mechanical reefer. While the kits are probably rare, I'm sure the instructions and drawings are out there and could be used to build a nice model from styrene. On the "still needed" side for contemproary trains are a good center beam flat car for forest products and (at least in the Midwest) the Thrall and/or Evans coil cars.
