I hear tell Magnum will be making Coilcars fairly soon, so just hold your horses on that one.
Also, he just made a 89ft Flatcar, chances are Autoracks and Boxcars of the same length using it as a frame are soon to come.

Welded rail cars are a possibility, but I'm not really sure how to make them articulate right...

What kind of reefer? 40ft? 64ft? I might do the latter, but the former is up to Magnum.
