I see more perishable reefer boxcars on the North Platte Perishables train than I do on the dedicated DELANO (ex-RailEx) train.  Go figure.

Coach, 
  When the ZDLGRP leaves Sparks, it is considerably longer. Like 50 or more cars longer. The MRVRO sets out long strings of reefers and other insulated box cars to be included on the train heading east.
