Fruit Growers Express not only owned a large fleet of insulated boxcars they also built many 50' boxcars and other equipment as well. FGE was owned by a group of ten railroads, with Atlantic Coast Line and Southern being two of the largest original owners. Many of FGE cars were built at its Jacksonville Shops, including these 50' smooth-side insulated boxcars.
