I believe the Hood milk reefer was used on the Boston and Maine in western Massachusetts to bring milk and cream to Boston.

H P Hood was a Boston dairy and, IIRC, they had milk cars covering many New England branch lines to get the product to Boston.  Seeing a restored reefer in Cass WV is, indeed, a surprise.

While the milk car is cool, I really like that C&O boxcar.
